DESCRIPTION:Please join us 6pm Wednesday, December 10th for a screening of Belkî Sibê 
 at @subrosa_space. Masks encouraged\n\nBelkî Sibê is a volunteer 
 soldier’s film. It unfolds an 18 month journey through war and 
 revolution, in Rojava Kurdistan NE Syria, during the advance and victory of 
 the Syrian Democratic Forces against ISIS, including the story of the 
 International Freedom Battalion, where the director was primarily deployed. 
 \n\nIt depicts the military life and battles on the front-lines, as well as 
 the civil life at the rear and the social transformation attempted by the 
 Autonomous Administration. In both fields, the role of women’s liberation 
 and empowerment is prominent. \n\nThe film follows a timeline from July 
 2016 (battle of Manbij) until the end of 2017 (liberation of Raqqa and 
 demise of the Islamic Caliphate), but also includes flash forward updates 
 from late 2021, at the end of each chapter. \n\nIn Belkî Sibê there is no 
 main character that drives the narrative. Instead, there is a plurality of 
 voices from a multitude of places, that merge to form a synthesis of 
 collective narrative, from the points of view of internationalists as well 
 as locals.\n https://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2025/12/01/18881926.php
