On the first anniversary of the Asian tsunami, go and watch the documentary 'From Dust' that was filmed in Sri Lanka after the killer wave struck the island.
The film will be screened on Monday at 7.30pm and 9pm at Cinestar Cinemas, Mall of the Emirates, Dubai.
Tickets are for Dh25 and proceeds will go towards the Galle Land project for tsunami survivors.
The film, which received strong reviews in the local and international press, is directed and produced by Dhruv Dhawan and edited by Nirmal Chander, Indian-born, Dubai-based filmmakers.
'From Dust' is a 71-minute documentary that takes you into the heart of Sri Lanka's devastated coastline and explores the reason why survivors in Sri Lanka were prevented from rebuilding their homes ... an ironic tale about how a disaster created suffering for some and opportunities for others.
