Because there are also just little creatives with a story: 'Zuheir, born glassblower'.

The absurdity of the pandemic is slowly sinking in, but still remains unfathomable. We will keep you updated on developments. But the bow cannot always be tight. Sometimes a moment's attention is needed, for the beauty people are capable of.

Therefore, a short film about glassblower Zuheir Alkazzaz who fled Syria because his glassworks were destroyed in the Assad war. Now he lives in Gouda. We follow him in a temporary studio in the city centre. At famous Dutch glassblower Bernard Heesen's studio in Acquoy and during the Ceramics Days in Gouda.
