People οf the Wasteland

People οf the Wasteland

20th TDF: World premiere

An experimental short-film depicting a fire line of the Syrian war in a first-person point of view. In the chaos of war, the lines between good and evil become blurred. This exclusive Go-Pro footage from inside war aims to remind us that in a territory where the landscape and the people are ephemeral because of war, only the image of a certain moment can remain eternal.
