Rojava Secret Revolution | BBC Our World (2014)

  • 10 years ago
The Middle East's newest territory is called "Rojava" (transl: "Western"). Out of the chaos of Syria's civil war, mainly Kurdish leftists have forged a radical, egalitarian, multi-ethnic mini-state run on communal lines. But with Daesh Jihadists attacking them at every opportunity - especially around the beleaguered city of Kobane, how long can this idealistic social experiment last? Our World has gained exclusive access to Rojava, from the frontlines, to the politicians and refugee camps.
