Synopsis

Since the war in Syria, the Kurdish cause has gained international attention.

In 2013, a de facto government emerged in Syrian Kurdistan, advocating a democratic and progressive model of governance. However, this political experiment unsettled neighboring regimes.

Caught between the dream of independence and brutal repression, the fate of the Kurds oscillates between utopia and tragedy.
