- Summary:
- "In 2003, the Bush Administration and the US media began referring to Syria and Iran in the same terms that had been used to justify the US invasion of Iraq ... After hearing reports about the friendliness of the Syrian people that conflicted with what was being presented in the news, filmmaker Jean Marie Offenbacher decided that this contradiction deserved further exploration. She moved to Syria, alone, to record a portrait of life from all across the country -- from the rural regions to the large urban centers and even to the halls of power in Damascus."--Container.
