is a movie about Homs, the capital of the Syrian revolution. It was filmed in August 2011 during Ramadan. Obscurity is the basic element in this movie, it is an artistic thought through choice. It represents the obscurity in telling the truth about the conversation taking place between the regime in power, and the people on the ground, and the obscurity in reporting the conflict between both voices: the voice of the regime/gunshots, and that of the people/songs This movie walks into the obscurity in Syria and strike opens those doors the regime has closed. It starts in obscurity and ends in broad daylight, exactly like what will happen in Syria right after the revolution

Filmed over 3 years in Homs, accompanying 2 outstanding young men from the time they were only dreaming of freedom to the time when they are forced to change course. Basset, the 19yo national football team goalkeeper, who became an outspoken demonstration leader in the city, then an icon revolution singer, till he becomes a fighter... a militia leader. Ossama, his 24yo friend, renowned citizen journalist, cynical pacifist... as his views are forced to change, until he is detained by army secret service. It is the story of a city, of which the world have heard a lot, but never really got closer than news, never really had the chance to experience how a war erupted. a modern times epic of youth in war time.
