The citizens of Raqqa have seen more destruction and devastation than any other city in the world. After years of occupation by the terrorists of the so-called Islamic State, who conquered Raqqa in 2014 and named it their self-proclaimed ‘caliphate’, Arab-Kurdish forces supported by the international coalition were able to drive out the IS. But this came at a cost, with much of the city reduced to rubble after air strikes against jihadist positions.

Despite these appalling living conditions, some residents of Raqqa have decided to fight for the reconstruction of their destroyed cultural heritage. Their first project was the restoration of the city museum, which had been looted or destroyed by ISIS prior to its liberation. It is an incredible story that has inspired a documentary titled ‘Raqqa: A Tale Of Resilience’.
