Frequently asked questions

What is Sabaya about? Toggle content

In the midst of a volatile political and military reality, a group of brave individuals, led by Mahmud and Ziyad, embark on a perilous mission to rescue Yazidi women and girls being held captive by ISIS as Sabaya, or sex slaves, in the notorious Al-Hol Camp in Syria. With nothing but an old mobile phone and a small gun, they face the danger of potential violence as they systematically plan and execute their missions, often accompanied by female infiltrators who were once Sabaya themselves. This observational documentary directed by Hogir Hirori offers a powerful and intimate look at their heroic efforts to free these women and bring them back home, where they can begin to heal from the trauma they've endured under the loving care of Mahmud's wife, Siham, and his mother, Zahra. Will these young women be strong enough to become brave female infiltrators themselves one day?
