Rojava: Syria's Secret Revolution

Out of the chaos of Syria’s civil war, Kurdish-led movements in the north of the country built an egalitarian, multi-ethnic self-government run on communal lines, with women in leading roles. They call it Rojava.

In Rojava: Syria’s Secret Revolution, filmmaker Mehran Bozorgnia travels from the refugee camps to the besieged city of Kobanê for the BBC’s Our World in 2014, as ISIS attacks the region, and asks how long this social experiment can survive.
