Бесстрашная Мэри Колвин — один из самых знаменитых военных корреспондентов современности. Она одинаково комфортно чувствует себя, потягивая Martini с элитой Лондона, и в противостоянии диктаторам в разгар боевого конфликта. Она бесконечно много курит, пристрастна к алкоголю и не всегда разборчива в связях. Но настойчивое желание засвидетельствовать правду заставляет ее снова и снова оказываться на передовых военных конфликтов по всему миру. Она не раз смотрела смерти прямо в глаза. Её жизнь — торнадо, её разум — минное поле, её прекрасное тело изранено. Вместе с таким же борцом за справедливость, военным фотографом Полом Конроем, в осажденном городе Сирии они приступают к самому опасному заданию в их карьере.
В фильме утверждается, что с 1970-х годов правительства, финансисты и технологические утописты отказались от комплекса «реального мира» и построили простой «фальшивый мир», который находится в ведении корпораций при поддержке политиков.

В свое время Адерет был одним из лучших секретных агентов в мире. Но время идёт, и вот уже начальство считает его слишком старым и отправляет шпиона в вынужденную отставку. Последний шанс восстановить былую репутацию появляется благодаря секретной операции, которая наводит Адерета на след поставщика химического оружия. Пока он выслеживает Анджелу, руководство посылает за ним молодого оперативника Дэниэла. Вновь ввязавшись в знакомую игру в кошки-мышки, старый разведчик постепенно понимает, что из охотника превратился в жертву.
Действие происходит в 1925 году в Дамаске, где идет война между сирийскими повстанцами и французскими войсками.

Однажды в ресторане он знакомится с Виолеттой, подругой шефа французской разведки полковника Феру, который хочет встретится для переговоров с лидером сирийцев Эмиром Хассаном. Феру вынуждает Смита устроить ему встречу с Хассаном.

Winner of the Grand Jury Documentary prize at the Sundance Film Festival, Syrian filmmaker Feras Fayyad’s breathtaking work — a searing example of boots-on-the-ground reportage — follows the efforts of the internationally recognized White Helmets, an organization consisting of ordinary citizens who are the first to rush towards military strikes and attacks in the hope of saving lives. Incorporating moments of both heart-pounding suspense and improbable beauty, the documentary draws us into the lives of three of its founders — Khaled, Subhi, and Mahmoud — as they grapple with the chaos around them and struggle with an ever-present dilemma: do they flee or stay and fight for their country?

Shot by a reported “1,001 Syrians” according to the filmmakers, SILVERED WATER, SYRIA SELF-PORTRAIT impressionistically documents the destruction and atrocities of the civil war through a combination of eye-witness accounts shot on mobile phones and posted to the internet, and footage shot by Bedirxan during the siege of Homs. Bedirxan, an elementary school teacher in Homs, had contacted Mohammed online to ask him what he would film, if he was there. Mohammed, working in forced exile in Paris, is tormented by feelings of cowardice as he witnesses the horrors from afar, and the self-reflexive film also chronicles how he is haunted in his dreams by a Syrian boy once shot to death for snatching his camera on the street.

When a British-born actor abandons his Hollywood career to volunteer to Join the Kurdish YPG to fight ISIS in Syria, many see him as a selfless hero battling America's most insidious enemy. But others think he's a hot-tempered narcissist, staging a publicity stunt to further his career - and when his service ends, neither the UK nor the US welcome him back. Through incisive interviews with the actor, his supporters, his detractors, and top-tier experts - and featuring the actor's own jaw-dropping helmet-cam video of deadly battles with and interrogations of ISIS fighters - Heval gives viewers unprecedented access into a war against evil and one man's controversial role in it.
The documentary The Silent Revolution explains the revolution involving nearly 3 million kurds living in Syria. With the outbreak of the civil war —in the frame of the called ‘Arab Spring'— the Kurds of Syria have taken advantage of the context to fight for their political and cultural recognition and thus end the repression that started more than 50 years ago.
THE STORY WON’T DIE, from Award-winning filmmaker David Henry Gerson, is an inspiring, timely look at a young generation of Syrian artists who use their work to protest and process what is currently the world’s largest and longest ongoing displacement of people since WWII. The film is produced by Sundance Award-winner Odessa Rae (Navalny). Rapper Abu Hajar, together with other creative personalities of the Syrian uprising, a post-Rock musician (Anas Maghrebi), members of the first all-female Syrian rock band (Bahila Hijazi + Lynn Mayya), break-dancer (Bboy Shadow), choreographer (Medhat Aldaabal), and visual artists (Tammam Azzam, Omar Imam + Diala Brisly), use their art to rise in revolution and endure in exile in this new documentary reflecting on a battle for peace, justice and freedom of expression. It is an uplifting and humanizing look at what it means to be a refugee in today’s world and offers inspiring and hopeful vantages on a creative response to the chaos of war.
