  • The image shows a young person standing on a sports field covered with artificial turf. They are facing the camera with a serious expression, wearing a black hoodie and a mask that covers the lower half of their face.

The overall tone of the image feels intense and somewhat mysterious. Tunisia. Why They Want to Leave at All Costs Malek Lakhal · April 2019
  • The image shows two photographs. One is a formal portrait of a man with short hair, wearing a light-colored sweater. The background contains decorative elements like flowers.

Both photos are placed together on a surface that includes some papers and miscellaneous items. Tunisia. Whatever the Cost, Don’t Let Them Cross Sana Sbouai · April 2019

There is a blue bucket beside them and a plastic bottle of water. The background includes other people walking by and buildings that suggest an urban environment.
