Winner—World Cinema Documentary Directing Award, Sundance Film Festival 2021

In Northeastern Syria's notoriously dangerous Al-Hol Camp, thousands of abducted Yazidi women and girls are held and trafficked as sabaya (sex slaves) by ISIS. Armed with only a mobile phone, a small gun, and earth-shattering bravery and courage Mahmud, Ziyad and volunteers—some of them former sabaya—work tirelessly to stage numerous rescue operations. And after the heart-stopping tension of midnight raids, car chases and hails of bullets, the rescued women and girls find a place to heal under the care of Mahmud's wife Siha and mother Zahra, a space where they are able to shed the black garments of an ideology that tolerates nothing but itself.
