I love these Syrian documentaries you guys are doing, please keep doing more of these Syrian documentaries!!💗

[@hurainsahar]

I just hope that these people are safe now!! All we can do is to pray Allah SWT to protect Syria from the destruction and violation. 💔😭

[@loreanschaffer2604]

I enjoy learning about other Cultures. These documentaries give me a glimpse into the lives of people in other countries. And I didn't even have to leave the comfort of my home. Or spend any money on traveling to these countries.

I feel like this was filmed before the war in Syria broke out.

[@shamalmahayni911]

No actually this is after and syria is still strong and back to normal gosh why is the world thinking syria is a dump after the war

[@Vikingshop]

@@shamalmahayni911 - because Western media LOVES the story about "The poor poor Refugees who will NEVER be able to return home to Syria"! Such headlines sell newspapers .... and other stuff!

[@shamalmahayni911]

@@Vikingshop thanks

[@MayorOfMoetown]

@@shamalmahayni911 I'd heard 1/3 of the people there died 😐. So, going back to normal doesn't seem so easy. But good to know.

This was probably in 2010-2011, and last update since the civil war (nine years too long), Damascus is largely untouched compared to the rest of the country. Hopefully the rebuilding process is doing well in Syria.

I love this Principal mashallah shakhsiya!

[@aqsaazam3785]

45:36, those judges are like the English teachers that say a character is depressed because they have blue curtains. 🤦 They be reading too much into a cardboard model. What happened to kids expressing themselves?

[@afrinfatima5019]

[@rehabalsaleh166]

I remember when I took my baccalaureate. It was really tough.

[@ayagrace2847]

When was this filmed? 2010?

[@Esteban_46]

Yes, it was filmed before the Syrian Civil War.

[@stefanofumagalli7694]

In 2009

[@dlakoba4459]

Far too many ads!!!!!!

[@rahafalsayedali578]

[@kyokoprincess319]

hhhhhhh the picture so cute 😂😂

[@ayagrace2847]

Not just baccalaureate in 12th grade also a brovet in 9th grade

[@soureyya9300]

That’s funny cause I’m from Syria and now live in France and the school system is still so similar

[@rehabalsaleh166]

Hey the Syrian astronaut Muhammed Fares is from my city, Aleppo.

[@Pdcbna12]

I wonder if they died in the civil war🙁

[@mynameis8404]

This is taking before the war.

[@saam4312]

Did he just say IMMORTAL President Hafez al-Assad ?

[@shaquandrawilliams448]

what happened to yusif

[@emilyyamasaki4968]

At the very end, it's revealed that his family got the visa for Canada and they leave to Canada at the very end. If you mean what he's up to know, who knows. Hopefully he's successful in whatever he is doing, I think he was 14 here and this was in 2010 so he's about 27/28 now.

[@suhailaal-olaimi8593]

Sadly, Wassim was killed in 2014 in an airstrike, when The Assad regime bombed mlieha with rocket launchers, he was only 14. الله يرحمك يا وسيم

[@Carpediem617]
