Return to Homs - Trailer

Preview: Season 28 Episode 5 | 2m 16s

War changes people, including 19-year-old Basset Saroot, who went from star goalkeeper for the Syrian national soccer team to peaceful advocate for Arab Spring reforms to armed insurgent. Return to Homs, which focuses on Basset and his ragtag group's transformation and struggles, is a heart-stopping study of the brutal war President Bashar al-Assad's regime has waged against the Syrian people.
