Stumble itIn 2009 Lebanese born photographer Dalia Khamissy set out to uncover what happened to the estimated 17,000 people kidnapped during the Lebanese civil war. A year later duckrabbit was commissioned by the BBC World Service to follow her story.
This is the first programme in the BBC/duckrabbit collaboration series: Open Eye. The radio documentary can be heard below:

PART 2: The Other (side of Sweden)
“Two original pieces of work with two really original photofilms and two extraordinarily good presenters / photographers. Their photography is exceptional and blended with the audio … Terrific storytelling in every sense.” Tony Phillips, Senior Commissioner, BBC World Service
‘It is fantastic stuff. What I see and hear informs me and educates me about a situation I previously had no knowledge of, gives me an insight into the thoughts and feelings of those involved, gives me pause and forces me to contemplate the lives of those who I have just been offered a glimpse of, and takes me to a place a long way from the quiet and peaceful room I am now in, so much so that my mind actually jarred when I looked up from the computer to see it still silently snowing outside my window. That’s powerful reporting.’ Tom White writing on Photography Lot
