In The Waiting, Italian director Mario Rizzi explores time and waiting within Zaatari, a Syrian refugee camp seven kilometers south of the Syrian border in the Jordanian desert. For seven weeks, Mario Rizzi documents the lives of several Syrian women in this ongoing state of emergency, including Ekhlas, a 29-year-old widow and mother of three. The film emphasizes how often members of the community seem to be waiting for things; “That Syrian President Assad goes to small events that give them hope or a small joy of her child's smile…But the most important is waiting for change, for peace.” (Rizzi 2013)
