Insyriated

Trapped inside her own home as the city around her is reduced to rubble, mother of three Oum Yazan (Hiam Abbass) takes comfort in the familiarity of household routines. The streets below are a war zone, with a barricaded doorway providing the only protection from the threat of deadly bombs and sniper fire.

And when the world outside finally bursts in, Oum Yazan is forced to make a terrible sacrifice in order to protect those she loves.
