Syria´s leftover is the story of one individual Syrian family who lived days after days in fear and misery and now try to start a new life in Turkey after they have escaped the war at night. It is the struggle for survival of Turkiye, Fatma, Eye and Suher. Of a mother and her daughters. The Syrian civil conflict marked his fourth anniversary. The United Nations estimate that more than 220.000 people have been killed. Two million people have fled to Turkey, which borders Syria, in search for security, especially women and children. The experiences and conditions they were facing were among the painfullest I have ever seen. Their story is a powerful example of the wide reach of the horrors of war. I felt a strong need to document and record the misery of war and the way in which it destroys many lives of families, and especially those of children and women.
