Script:

 Zardana, in the Idlib countryside- 
It is an area filled with slums and displacement camps for families from northern Syria. Mohammed left his town of Ma'arshureen in northwestern Syria over six years ago, fleeing attacks by Assad regime forces.
 
+++ Mohammad Duaimes, Internally displaced Syrian
00:20-I want to end my displacement and my status as a refugee,
00:23 and return to my land to live and 00:25 rebuild my life there, but how can I do so?
+++ Mohammad Duaimes, Internally Displaced Syrian
00:28-There are no hospitals, no schools, no clinics, no mosques. 
00:32-Everything is destroyed. So why should we return?
 
Like hundreds of refugees in this camp who left in search of safety, they live in plastic tents that fail to protect them from the winter frost or the summer heat. They long to return - but where to?

00:50-This is our neighborhood...
00:53-Where can people return amidst the devastation and destruction? 
00:55-This place is inhabited only by hyenas and beasts.
00:58-This sums up my entire life.
01:01- I worked for 20 years to build this house.
01:03-This is my home…
01:04-How can I return to it when it's all destroyed?
 
Mohammad‘s hometown of Maarshourin is one of the many cities reduced to rubble during the civil war in the country. It is only fifty kilometers away from his camp, but far from being a place to live:

01:21-Where will I get water for my children to drink? Even a water tanker can't get through the destroyed roads.
01:28-It's all destroyed. This isn't just my situation; it's the situation of the entire village. 
01:32-The schools are destroyed, as are the clinics. Everything is completely destroyed.
01:37-This isn't just the result of bombing. It's all looting by Assad's thugs.
01:42-The former regime did this to our homes.
01:44-They demolished the roofs, took the iron bars, and destroyed everything.
 
Despite the destruciton, Mohammed clings to the hope of returning to his village one day. For now, with a heavy heart, he is staying in Zardana.
 
+++ Mohammad Duaimes, Internally displaced Syrian
01:58-Today, after Syria's liberation, we don't know what our future holds, but it appears to be unknown for now. 
02:03-We hope it won't be. 
02:06-We, who gave so much and were displaced,
02:09- hope and ask the entire world not to forget us.
