What the creator captured
Davud Akhundzada was struck by the untapped tourism potential of Somaliland's beautiful blue waters and the active role of women in the local economy. He found it particularly unusual and awkward when police cleared the entire beach at 5:30 PM for what locals described as religious reasons. Despite the challenges with filming in public, he appreciated the unique opportunity to explore a territory that sees only 500 tourists a year.
