Of Fathers and Sons
NAME OF FILM: OF FATHERS AND SONS
DIRECTOR(S): Talal Derki
GENRE: Documentary Film
SYNOPSIS: In this remote village in northern Syria, a landscape of bombed-out homes, abandoned tanks, and minefields becomes a playground for young boys taught to stone any girls who dare to show their faces in public. Schools have been decimated. Education consists of reciting the Koran and attending military training camp. Bedtime stories regale the glory of martyrdom. With unparalleled intimacy, Of Fathers and Sons captures that chilling moment when childhood dies and jihadism is born.
