The Polygon

Kima is developing a full-length feature film about Semey (formerly Semipalatinsk), Kazakhstan. Semey suffered massive human and environmental damage due to the Soviet Nuclear Weapons Testing Program. From 1949 until 1989, 456 nuclear weapons tests were conducted at the site. The people of Semey, as the city is now known, were not asked, did not know, and certainly had no idea of what the implications would be in regard to these tests. This is their story.

Client: The Arab League

This campaign was designed to “humanize” Middle East nationals in the aftermath of 911. At the time, and to some extent today, there were misconceptions of who they are and what they represent given media hype and visual representation. Each individual pictured is a real person whose image does not tell their whole story. For example, one of the women was a doctor in Gaza. The Arab League was interested in overcoming negative stereotypes of the Arab world in the West.
