DIE LETZTEN MÄNNER VON ALEPPO

In the organizer's words:

DRK/BRD/SYR 2017, documentary film, 104 min

Director: Feras Fayyad

Language: OmU (Arabic with German subtitles)

Content Notes: 5, 3, 1

The camera follows Khaled, Mahmoud and Subhi wherever they go - across the rubble of Aleppo, a city of millions, in the midst of a draining war, under fire, very close to death, very close to the reality of those who remain. Feras Fayyad accompanies three volunteers from the Syrian civil defense organization "White Helmets" for two years. Awarded Best Documentary at the 2017 Sundance Film Festival, the film tells an honest story of tragedy and hopelessness. But also about goldfish, motorcades and yet a little hope.

The event is being held in cooperation with the Migration Department of Diakonie Leipzig as part of the Nachgefragt event series.
The film will be followed by a discussion about staying or leaving in times of war.
