For nearly nine years, civil war has raged in Syria. The conflict has created millions of refugees and devastated countless towns and cities.

Directed by Emmy award-winning filmmaking duo Waad al-Kateab and Edward Watts (Escaping ISIS), the film chronicles the experiences of 26-year-old Syrian filmmaker Waad al-Kateab, who filmed her life in the rebel-held city of Aleppo over five years.
