I am very excited to share this upcoming film with the SOFREP community. For those of you who only know of Syria by what the media has told you, here is a film sure to open the eyes of America. Stop all the whining about how bad you have it and imagine you were born into a land as oppressed as Syria.

The filmmaker, Matthew VanDyke, has spent all his own money to finance this film and show the world what it’s really like to live in this war-torn country. Many of you may know Matthew as a contributor to Brandon and Jack’s book Benghazi: The Definitive Report—concerning his time fighting with the rebels in Libya. Matthew has most recently spent time in Syria traveling with the rebels and filming their struggle against the Assad regime.
