CHILDREN OF THE ENEMY

CHILDREN OF THE ENEMY

NORTH AMERICAN PERMIERE Children of dead ISIS members have been left to wallow in abject neglect in refugee camps, in penance for their parents’ “sins.” Protagonist Patricio Galvez sets out to free his own grandchildren from Syria’s hellish al-Hol camp, putting up a lonely and heart-rending fight against a wall of bureaucracy and the grief of losing his daughter to bring them home. His story gives a human face and heart to sufferings we often lose sight of within news cycles.  – Bedatri Choudhury
