Abd Alkader Habak

Abd Alkader Habak ("Habak") brings first-hand experience as a Syrian cinematographer who documented the Syrian conflict over six years (2011- 2017). Working in dangerous environments, he collaborated with BBC and CNN as cameraman and field producer. His work during the siege of Aleppo—before fleeing in 2017—resulted in extraordinary archive footage documenting the Syrian revolution and war. Now London-based, Habak continues documentary. His recent short "Syria's Last Chapter" was commissioned by Al Jazeera Witness (December 2024). He is also in production with a feature documentary called “Until the Buzzing Stops”
