Krátky popis
This is the story of Doaa, an ordinary girl from a village in
Syria, who in 2015 became one of five hundred people crammed on to
a fishing boat setting sail for Europe. The boat was deliberately
capsized, and of those five hundred people, eleven survived, they
were rescued four days after the boat sank. Doaa was one of them -
her fiancee Bassem, with whom she had fled, was not, he drowned in
front of her. Melissa Fleming, the Chief Spokesperson for the UN
High Commissioner for Refugees, heard about Doaa and the death of
489 of her fellow refugees on the day she was pulled out of the
water. She decided to fly to Crete to meet this extraordinary girl,
who had rescued a toddler when she was nearly dead herself. They
struck an instant bond, and Melissa saw in Doaa the story of the
war in Syria embodied by one young woman. She has decided to tell
Doaa's story - the dangers she fled, and the journey she risked to
escape the conflagration in her homeland. Doaa is the face of the
millions of mothers, fathers, sisters, brothers, daughters and sons
who risk everything as they try to escape war, violence and death.
Doaa's story will revolutionize how we see the thousands of people
who die every year in search of a home. It will squarely face one
of the greatest moral questions of our age: will we let more people
die in boats and trucks, or will we find a way to help them?
