Libya Eclipse / For media
For media & film crews
Covering the eclipse from Libya
Broadcasters, documentary crews and photographers will want to be under the shadow on 2 August 2027. Filming in Libya needs permits, local knowledge and people on the ground. That is our work.
Filming & press permits
We prepare and follow your filming and press permits with the Libyan authorities, so your crew can work legally from day one.
Fixers & translators
Arabic and English speakers who know the institutions, the roads and the people, and open doors that stay closed to outsiders.
Locations on the line
Scouting of viewing and filming positions inside the path of totality, with the Sun’s height and direction planned for your shot.
Local crew & logistics
Camera and sound crew, drivers, accommodation and advice on bringing equipment into the country.
Led by a Libyan filmmaker
Hussein Eddeb is a Libyan documentary filmmaker and photographer. His work has appeared on Getty Images and Shutterstock, and his films have screened in Marseille, Milan and Tunis.
