Syrian director Soudade Kaadan’s award-winning feature Nezouh offers a powerful and moving perspective on the Syrian conflict. 14-year-old Zeina and her family are the last to have stayed in their besieged hometown of Damascus. A missile rips a giant hole in their home, exposing them to the outside world. When a rope is mysteriously lowered into the hole, Zeina gets her first taste of freedom, and an unimaginable world of possibility opens up for her. Mutaz, her father, refuses to flee to the uncertain life of a refugee. Faced with a life-or-death dilemma, Zeina and Hala, her mother, must decide whether to stay or leave.
