Wandering through the Worst Zoo in the World, a young boy SAMI is looking for his football. The loner finds more than that when he encounters the little tiger LAZIZ, who follows him on his quest to find a safe place to play. Against all odds, they become friends. But the remnants of war harbor danger.
Why we made this film?
This short animated film is inspired by the worst "Zoo in the world", located in Gaza. The animals that died because of the war were embalmed and exhibited. The remaining living animals, involving a tiger called Laziz, were rescued to safe reserves, including Jordan. But nothing has changed for the people living in Gaza. We wanted to shine a light on the people's desperate situation in war-torn countries by telling a story of friendship and suffering through the innocent eyes of a child.
