An epic tale from Mohammed Massoud Morsi in conversation

Join Mohammed Massoud Morsi to hear about his epic tale of exile, survival and indestructable love.

The Hair of the Pigeon traces a path from the atrocities of the Syrian civil war across the Mediterranean to present-day Copenhagen.

Born in Denmark to Egyptian parents, he grew up between Egypt and Denmark.

He has spent his career working as a journalist and photojournalist throughout the Middle East, in particular Beirut, the West Bank and Gaza and covered the Syrian Civil War.

Morsi balances brutality and hope, cruelty and love. He reveals the deep consequences of displacements forced by wars and he leaves us with a profound sense that, through it all, humanity will persist.

Morsi will be in conversation with Rashida Murphy.

'If you fall in love, love a moon and if you steal, steal a pigeon.'
