Salam Neighbor is a 2015 documentary film by the production companies Living on One Dollar and 1001 MEDIA.[1][2] The title means "hello" neighbor.[3] The title has a dual meaning as the Arabic word "salam" also means "peace."[citation needed]
The film documents the experiences of American filmmakers Zach Ingrasci and Chris Temple when they lived among 85,000 Syrians in Jordan's Za'atari refugee camp, which lies seven miles from the Syrian border.[4] The filmmakers, who were the first allowed by the UN to register and set-up a tent inside a refugee camp,[5] spent a month[6] in Za'atari to cover what the UN Refugee Agency calls the world's most pressing humanitarian crisis.[7]
Salam Neighbor is a component of a three-part project focused on the Syrian refugee crisis: the documentary, a virtual reality (VR) film[8] and a social impact campaign.[9]
The film had its world premiere in Washington, DC at the AFI DOCS film festival on June 20, 2015.
