There’s a creativity paradox in the Middle East.
A young internet-driven generation are creating universal content.
You have spoken word talent like this.
Performance like this.
Music composition like this.
And Mai, complaining about girls in her High School.
Project pen new voices was filmed over a weekend at Makan art space by a talented Indie film maker, a US educated spoken word poet and a couple of volunteers.
The paradox is that right now this content is hidden away in dusty corners of the internet; being created, but not being seen.
