“Happiness and Love” won a Webby last night! Congrats and lots of love to our wildly talented team! 🙏✨🪩 Category: Video & Film - Documentary (Branded) Growing up in Paterson, New Jersey, as a child of immigrants, Layla Faraj and her parents created memories every summer visiting family in Syria. But when the Syrian War broke out in 2011, everything changed. Directed by Mohammad Gorjestani, “Happiness and Love” is the story of a WhatsApp group of the same name that became “home” for Layla and her family in the disorienting aftermath of war, and the fragmented identity diaspora and displacement create. I’m so grateful to Layla, her parents, and their entire family for allowing us to share their story. I’m so admiring of Layla who is such a talented writer and expansive thinker and I’m grateful to call her a friend now.

“Happiness and Love” | A True Story on @whatsapp. Directed by @evenodd.studio’s @mohammad.earth and narrated by Syrian-American student Layla Faraj, “Happiness and Love” tells the story of Layla’s family, who, separated by distance and war, preserve their familial connection the only way possible... via Whatsapp group text. As always, thoughtful, beautiful storytelling from Mohammad and the team at Even/Odd. And the greatest thanks to Layla and her family for opening the warmth of their chat thread and showcasing the power of connectivity and love amidst distance and division. @whatsapp @modern.arts__ @evenodd.studio
