Syria Behind The Lines (US); Syria Across the Lines (UK)

'Mesmerising... simply the most powerful film to have come out of the war in Syria. There are not that many programmes on television that demand to be seen, but this is one of them.'

- The Times

‘Brave, astonishing... an unflinching account of modern warfare, in which the moral position of both sides is obscured by the devastating reality of battle.’

- The Daily Telegraph

‘a graphic picture of a society being rent in two.’

- Mail on Sunday

'A particularly brave bit of film-making, deftly capturing the absurdity and the pathos of the ongoing struggle in Syria, whilst never side-stepping the horrors either.'

- Matt Baylis, Daily Express

'A brilliant piece of reporting ... a piercing portrait of a nation being torn

- Radio Times

'Lambert makes [the civil war] viscerally comprehensive, while presenting the purest interpretation of 'fair and balanced' most of us are ever likely to see: He doesn't just get both sides of the story, but could have easily died in the process of getting them.'

- Newsday

'Gripping, must see war footage'

- Sen John McCain
