Cinemamed - Birds of War

A London-based Lebanese journalist and a Syrian activist and cameraman meet through screens at the heart of the war in Syria. For thirteen years, their personal archives tell the story of a love interwoven with revolutions, war, and exile.

The account of a relationship that begins amidst sound and fury and, against all odds, turns into a romantic comedy full of warmth and connection.
