Imagine that you are in a hospital, one day…at the reception inquiring about something
And your eyes land on the news report being telecast, in that very moment
Showing a very familiar picture of someone you know and knew!
It hits you then, that this is the person you have been looking for, all this while!

You have always been convinced that this person you’ve always been looking for, never left or died as you were told
You drop whatever you are doing and rush to your parents to let them know about what you discovered
And they rebuke you, for opening up wounds that had previously sealed up!

You remain steadfast in your belief and now, you have made up your mind
To go searching the earth, for this special somebody of yours….
Off you are to this place, searching and tossing the world upside down
Voila….you find this person!

This is exactly the story of Antoine
As he traverses the earth in France, at home
Thinking he lost his sister, Anna to some bombing
Only for her to turn up somewhere in “No Man’s Land“ aka “Syria”!

He gets home and out of excitement, shares his “research findings”
With his parents, Marie and Philliphe Habert
They don’t believe him…I mean, who would, after seeing what they all saw?

In the end, they see him off, on his quest
You could even say they gave him their blessing
And Syria, he went!

Now, there is quite a lot going on in Syria
There is a number of forces in play here….
Ranging from those of ISIS

To the government forces
To the “self-anointed mercenaries” like Ryan

And finally, down to the YPJ that everyone is afraid of….

By the way, did you know that the YPJ are a very crucial partner in the defeat and demolition of ISIS?
And they still are?

In No Man’s Land, they are an all-female led and dominated militia, made up of several small units and battalions
In one of which, Anne is a part of!
You won’t want to miss out on the entire story of how Anne got to join them and become one of their best ever, eeh!

The theme of radicalization is extensively exploited in this show
With the 3 British friends that have now converted to Islam and are ISIS fighters
Or really not….especially in the case of Nasser, who happens to be a spy of the Mi6!

Iyad is the youngest and most enthusiastic of the 3 friends
He sees the world in a certain way and if you ask me, it can be pretty dangerous to live this way!
If you probably want to keep a secret, you might want to think twice about doing so…

Paul is the most conflicted and divided of these 3 friends
Back in the UK, he can’t go back to his child and family that he left behind
And now, that he’s on the battle-field, he wants to be close to them!
Recipe for disaster, isn’t it?

Stanley is the man in charge of turning minds and hearts into the war directly!
He has a talent for spotting soft targets that will fight for the cause, you know!
And he’s one hell of a smooth talker!

Sarya is one of the fighters of the YPJ and with her, comes a very sad story of being “dragged” to Syria, literally!
One wonders what life she could have been living, by now, if she had just remained home, you know…

Commandante Adar is the overall commander of the YPJ
Judging by what we’ve been able to see, so far, she has done quite a commendable job organizing the girls
And keeping them safe, too!

It’s a story of war
A story of betrayal
A story of power and control
A story of love
A story worth watching!!!
