BADGES THIS VIDEO HAS EARNED:

When the war in Syria ended in early 2025, I knew I had to go. For years, the world only saw one side of the country — war, destruction, and fear. But I believed there was more. I looked online and found no cinematic drone footage. I wasn’t sure what to expect. But what I found changed my life. Syria is not just what we’ve seen in the media — it’s full of beauty, history, and strong people. The landscapes were breathtaking. The moments were real. This film shows a different side of Syria — one that’s peaceful, raw, and powerful. Footage that has never been captured before. A new view of a country the world forgot to truly see.
