Winner of the Grand Jury Documentary prize at the Sundance Film Festival, this breathtaking work—a searing example of boots-on-the-ground reportage in war-torn Syria—follows the internationally recognized White Helmets, an organization comprised of ordinary citizens who rush toward explosions in the hope of saving lives. Incorporating moments of heart-pounding suspense and improbable beauty, the documentary draws us into the lives of three of its founders as they struggle with the question of whether to flee with their families or stay to help their people. A gripping portrait of extraordinary bravery, Last Men in Aleppo provides a stirring new perspective on a conflict reshaping our world.
