Fighting ISIS: Western Soliders' Stories Volunteering Helping Syria (Full Documentary)

  • Inspired by the mythology of the International Brigades of the Spanish Civil War, over 300 foreign volunteers chose to give up their comfortable lives and go fight ISIS in Raqqa. We filmed them there, fly-on-the-wall style, fighting, talking, laughing, being attacked by suicide bombs and sniper fire. We were with them until Raqqa was freed. And then we followed them back home - changed forever.
    Every night, between July and October 2017, young men with no previous military experience pushed through the most dangerous streets of the world. They conquered Raqqa, block after block. They met death and violence. And eventually, along with the Kurdish and Arab forces of the Syrian Democratic Forces, they liberated Raqqa and ended the reign of the most murderous cult of the XXI century. Some of them went back home. We were there when they told their story to their families.
    “I gave my life to help the people of Northern Syria, to stop the terrorists, but my government is more interested in trying to charge me with terrorism instead”, complains former British Army soldier, Kevin. Josh, 22 from California, also finds the homecoming hard. “I miss Syria badly. War begot meaning to my life.” Made by acclaimed journalists Paul Moreira and Pedro Da Fonseca, this is the untold story of the young Westerners who left everything behind to fight ISIS.
    This documentary was produced by Premiere Lignes and directed by Paul Moreira, Pedro de Fonseca. It was first released in 2019.

    12:28 i think were missing something important. Who is shooting those white phosphorus flares up to light the night? Is that YPG or daesh? Or coalition??

    If anyone can help, im looking for a similar documentary about 3 or 4 foreign YPG fighters. I beleieve it was a miniseries possibly on Vice or HBO possibly (for some reason even netflix/prime is in my head too ugh?)... This was years ago almost a decade possibly. Its super good and it actually shows the stories of when they come home too. I think a couple are american and a couple are other European nationionals. Anyways if this rings any bells or have any questions please let me know! I cant find it anywhere and it was AMAZING. it was this, but much longer and much more detail.
