Isqat al Nizam: At the Regime Border (2012)

It's not easy to forecast what's going to happen in Syria. The hope of many is that the Assad family will democratically step down, after 40 years of dictatorship but many people fear that they will drag the population to hell before disappearing from the scene. Most of the Syrian population wishes that the revolution will remain in the hands of young people and continue peacefully as a symbol of Hope, although some can't help firing back when the regime brings blood to the population. Some hope for an intervention from a foreign country, but are also afraid that this would bring a civil war. ISQAT AL NIZAM is a crude and touching story that sheds some light on the "Syrian Spring": from the initial violent reactions of the regime, to the heartbreaking escape of more than 20,000 refugees to Turkey; from the constant activity of the rebels through social networks to the ongoing defection of soldiers and former officials. The collection of exclusive interviews with locals and stolen footage of the events, make this film a unique account.
