Jonathan Holland Hollywood Reporter Inevitably it's a potently soul-stirring, guilt-inducing experience which deserves to be seen by as many people as possible - but particularly, perhaps, by those privileged children old enough now to reflect upon it, and later to act. Feb 27, 2017 Full Review Javier Ocaña El Pais (Spain) The merit of counting the exodus from Syria to Turkey is dwarfed by its commitment to stylize what is already beautifully tragic. [Full review in Spanish] Feb 28, 2017 Full Review Alberto Bermejo El Mundo (Spain) A documentary in which the director takes the children's point of view, the innocent and less politicized victims. [Full review in Spanish] Feb 28, 2017 Full Review Carlos Marañón Cinemanía (Spain) A film with a style that raises an extreme question: the pornography of pain as a valid weapon for the documentalist or as an abuse.

Audience Member I found the movie born in Syria to be good because I like how the documentary used the point of view of the children because it grabbed at my heartstrings so that caught my attention and made me want to finish it and know what happens to them. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review toby h Born in Syria is a soul-stirring documentary that looks at the plight of seven children trying to leave Syria and settle in Europe. Although harrowing, this informative doc needs to be seen by all. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Not much exciting as entertainment, but necessary and unforgettable when you talk about a human tragedy in which we must assume our responsability. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Read all reviews
