District Zero

As he does every morning, Maamun Al-Wadi opens the door of his shop. It’s a tiny white box. Beside it, another identical box. Then another and another. The horizon is an endless line of thousands of little boxes, all exactly the same. We are in one of the world’s biggest refugee camps, Zaatari, in Jordan. Maamun’s shop repairs mobile phones. He starts attending to his clients. The content of their memory cards reflects their Syrian past.
