Synopsis
Greetings From Aleppo reveals how little Syria news corresponds with the experiences of everyday life. Photographer Issa Touma films life, the inconsistencies and perseverance as they reveal themselves in front of his camera. War is tragic and absurd. Surviving is often highly surreal and touching in this war-torn city.
