The inspiring story of three women risking their lives to incite political, activist, and armed uprisings in Afghanistan, Syria, and Iraq.

Since 2013 more than 30,000 fighters from all over the world have joined the troops of the self-proclaimed Islamic State (Daesh) in Syria. Fighting against them as part of the YPO (Popular Protection Command) in Rojava—in the north of Syria and prevalently Kurdish—are some hundreds of Westerners. This is the story of three of them: a former American marine, an Italian anti capitalist activist, and a Swedish bodyguard.

Three women in Raqqa, NE Syria, are rebuilding their future after enduring incredible violence. First, the Baath regime wanted them in the house, then the violence of the Islamic State. Since October 2017 when the SDF recaptured the city, they had the opportunity to organize themselves and pick up new roles in society.
