Little Syria

Reem Karssli, Madalina Rosca / Romania, Portugal, Germany / 2025 / 90 min

In Berlin, Reem, Mohammed, and Yasser—three Syrian refugees—struggle with the trauma of displacement. After escaping their homeland, they try to find a new beginning in Berlin. But how can they arrive when the past refuses to let them go? Co-director Reem Karssli joins the protagonists in their exploration of what remains of the Syrian revolution. When the Assad regime suddenly falls in December 2024, everything changes, giving rise to new hopes and new challenges. What will Syria’s future look like?
