I have a question for Saint Levant: in the dozens of credits for set design, image, direction, etc under your video, why is there no mention of Fatima Shbair, a Palestinian photographer and mother from Gaza who we haven’t heard from since April 9 2024 & whose work is copied?

[Gulf Photo Plus @gulfphotoplus]

@taraalami Thank you Tara for pointing this out. We have been in touch with Fatima and in support have listed this print with all proceeds going to support her and her family. Here is the link to the print:
