Tourist‘s current project is the feature documentary The Runner. The Runner is a film about endurance.
It is the story of Salah Ameidan, a champion long-distance runner whose journey transformed him from an athlete to the symbol of a national liberation movement. Salah is willing to risk his career, his family, his nationality and his life to run for a country that doesn’t exist: Western Sahara, Africa’s last colony.
Tourist With A Typewriter Ltd. was founded in 2004 by Saeed Taji Farouky and Gareth Keogh in order to tell humanistic and challenging stories. Their documentaries look behind the obvious sensationalism of daily news asking how individual lives fit into the bigger picture, and what happens to ordinary people in extraordinary circumstances.
