Admittedly, there are a lot of documentaries like this, made by citizen journalists recording uprisings in their homelands, but this is one of the best of the recent crop, and a timely reminder of a conflict that's slipped out of the headlines of late. Jun 26, 2014 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

The film makes you an eyewitness to the chaos of war. There's not much context here, which can be confusing. But still, it's gripping. Jun 24, 2014 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

The director's relentless, claustrophobic approach is surely an accurate reflection of the tragedy itself. There is no wider picture; the world has largely turned its back. Jan 23, 2014 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

The film has been impressively edited by Anne Fabini, so that despite the inevitable rough and ready nature of some of the footage captured under fire, the end result feels taut and cohesive. May 25, 2015 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…
