Write a short summary of what happens in the film

This isn’t just a data driven film. It’s an outrage driven film. We reveal just how little the Middle East is represented in the rest of the world’s media. Apertures open throughout to reveal a percentage of a reportage image – the exact percentage of the coverage the rest of the world’s media has outrageously given to that story. A call to action drives you to The National, the Middle East’s leading news publication.
