VOICE OF THE WIND

The city of Kobani became a ghost city after it was almost completely destroyed. However, some of its people decided to return to search for their memories despite the warning of specialists that the city is uninhabitable. As Kobani is also a tribal area with a special social structure, the film highlights women's participation in combat.
