“A candle to Remember” short film by Taafi & Kesh Malek, as part of the team working on this campaign, this film was one of the most difficult issues we worked on in Kesh Malek. An exhausting feelings nothing can describe, but our friend Hiba from Taafi team summarized it in few words:

“I’m hearing my own voice, feeling sorry for myself. I’m interacting strangely as if I’m listening to another person and touched by the story. Deeply wanting to hug her, and support her, and still unable to understand that this person is me…”

The daily details lived by the detainees in the Syrian Regime’s prisons are not less violative to their most essential human rights than the documented torturing techniques documented in yo be used in these detention centers.
In this video, one of the survivors talks about the details and sufferings she faced in her detention experience, few details that show small part if what the Syrian women, and even young girls face in the Syrian intelligence centers

The impact of detention on survivors’ relationship with public Affair

This study attempts to understand the impact of the detention experience on
survivors’ relationship with public affairs in terms of interest and engagement. For
this purpose, research material was collected on the experiences of 200 male and
female survivors from the Syrian regime’s detention centers, and was analyzed
along three tracks:
The first is a comparative analysis of the respondents’ relationship with public
affairs before and after the outbreak of the protests in the country.
The second is a comparative analysis of the same relationship before and after the
detention.
The third track included a correlational analysis of the most prominent subjective
and objective variables that are likely to play a role in maximizing or minimizing
the impact of the experience on the survivors.

Each candle represents a victim of torture in Syrian dentition centers.
Each candle expresses the hopes, dreams, and a life kidnapped by criminality and repression.
Each candle to assure we didn’t and will not forget, to assure we will ever remember their pain and hear their screams.
