Synopsis:
Riccardo Bianco, a young director from Turin, thought he knew what he was going to face with: a long and bloody war, which has been disrupting Syria for more than five years, but he had certainly never experienced a war himself. And it will be this presumption of knowledge that changes this experience profoundly.
