An incredible story set in the late 1300s sees the beautiful Asia d'Argento fighting against the tyranny of a spIetate despot. Our Guido Maria Ranieri takes us on a wild, raw but also very intriguing journey. Many exciting situations follow one another, making this film a truly unique document.

A love letter from a young mother to her daughter, the film tells the story of Waad al-Kateab’s life through five years of the uprising in Aleppo, Syria as she falls in love, gets married and gives birth to Sama, all while cataclysmic conflict rises around her. Her camera captures incredible stories of loss, laughter and survival as Waad wrestles with an impossible choice– whether or not to flee the city to protect her daughter’s life, when leaving means abandoning the struggle for freedom for which she has already sacrificed so much.
