CNN - Love in Conflict

 

There are 28 active conflicts around the world at this very moment. Over the past year, CNN has collected letters written between loved ones who have been in the path of past and present hostilities. These true stories show that love can endure the worst pains of war.

I had the opportunity to design and animate Yana's letter. One out of five letters from CNN's series Love in Conflict.

Yana Galang’s life was changed forever on April 14, 2014. Her 17-year-old daughter, Rifkatu, was at boarding school in Chibok, Nigeria, for her final week of exams. Boko Haram extremists stormed the school and kidnapped her from her bed. In total 276 girls, ages 16 to 18, were taken that night.
