Audio & Captions
In order to make the documentary more widely accessible, it was decided to shoot it in Arabic, which was the native language of the interviewee, Gaby. However, the film has been captioned and dubbed in English, ensuring that a larger audience can understand her story and message. This allows for a more inclusive viewing experience, honoring the mission of Music Without Borders to break down barriers and build connections through the power of music. Through this decision, the film truly embraces the concept of being without borders, both linguistically and thematically.
Run Time

Dive into the world of MWB through Gaby’s eyes and experience the power of music without borders.
