The filmmakers' collective Abou Naddara ("Man with Glasses") has dedicated itself to shooting professional short documentaries to support the Syrian revolution. The aim is to release a new film every week - so far, more than fifty have been made. As there is currently no objective news reporting in Syria, the films are designed to chronicle the protest and to convey a different perspective on the events the country is witnessing, in particular as an alternative to the all-pervasive mobile-phone videos. The films are shot in Syria and released on various Internet platforms.


Abou Naddara is an independent film production company based in Damascus and specializing in documentary for all platforms worldwide.
