"I want to tell the story of Medya, the 18-year old girl
who wanted to be a football player in the Syrian national team, but now
she can't because "ISIS has destroyed all my dreams"; I want to tell the
story of Feram, who kissed his wife and eight children goodbye in
Germany, and left for Kobanê to join the resistance against ISIS; I also
want to tell the story of Müslüm, who spent three years in a Turkish
jail for little more than being a Kurd demanding democracy, and who went
out of his way to help me getting around and meeting me with the right
people."
25% Of the fees will be donated to the Syrian refugees in Turkey. Thanks for your solidarity and support.
