i am from. did you see. just to see my friends. my name is. i came here because i want for my children. to be killed russian citizens. here because. my name is or not. to. my name is.

i'm planning to stay. here. until just a year ago i would never have thought of leaving damascus and building a new house in a small village in the tiny republican russia sells and the land of his ancestors when war broke out in the caucuses one hundred fifty years ago his grandfather and hundreds of thousands of a dog is would deport him sent to turkey jordan syria and other countries in the middle east now war has brought a twist of fate. to return to his ancestral home i have. i have to go to canada i have some. but i prefer to come

here because i believe that there is a big. in the economy. maybe in the coming good twenty s. not now. many syrians like you some i came to this village in search of peace and other local people helping rebuild the house. the people here told me that this house is empty can you accept to live here and i came and it's ok for me this is not the end of the war. with his wife to stay for a while with their children in a rented flat and he didn't want them to be put off by living in an unfinished house. we pulled this in syria must leave us maybe it means us to be in syria we like to do to this to lots so we are trying to find this it's freezing here it's not selfish. in syria nancy had everything she could dream of

a villa on two floors with a nice looking golden in a damascus suburb she looked after her three children and her husband had a lucrative business but when bombs began to explode in front of their house the couple had to throw it all to the wind and seek refuge where there were no gunshots to frighten the children. this fourth or it's my car. and this is my lever one door. or someone didn't explosion it was my kitchen door broke the windows were broken would be very sad because this is the only chair where dreams me i make everything and banks came. to. the syrian woman is a hero. she's trying to. trying

to protect their families. their home. her house her. hair her syria and everything and she had to under control about everything and we don't have that possibility to do that much we are fighting to save everything every time we are talking about. we also crying all the time when i crying. it's not easy for you to forget. you know or. to go see. six months ago. a small house in a village he brought his parents to their ancestors' land in russia three months

later his elder brother came from damascus with his wife and their four children now they have to eat their meals in shifts the table isn't big enough to accommodate a family of thirteen. you know. kid a. family i must leave from there my wife living in america i want to go to. visit but america said no visa but. no problem for me for my child. like leaving an american people believe america and maybe freedom and. peace. for me no i don't think it was.

destroying syria and not so you don't believe hundred percent of. the syrian people are not doing. what. might or might for. you we always believe that god maybe will give us. cause we are seeing god with people and what. feels like

a blow to living in his younger siblings house unlike his brother he had no strong desire to go to the land of their ancestors he and his wife have become accustomed to this city life. who see what's happening to. people all just life and just killing each other nobody knows why. i left my home go i left my job my friends some family also still there we left our whole life. yet you. see as nine year old daughter can speak. russian she only knows arabic and neither her schoolmates nor her teachers can understand her. the adaptation for her was more difficult than for the others

she had a hard time kept to herself and said nothing in our language she would simply sit in silence. to study with older children they too came from syria several months ago the language barrier prevents them from learning a standard curriculum and so a special classroom has been set aside for them yet now they're learning two languages at a time from scratch they'll need the tongue to preserve national culture and for everyday communication knowing russian will help them achieve a higher education and find a good job in the future. to parents speak because the older generation kept their mother tongue alive within the family younger parents never suspected that their children would ever need to know their ancestral language until war broke out. when my daughter. told me that the school is big and i'm fraid from the school it's big

and the people. just crying every night i don't want to go to school tomorrow. owned a business in syria a logistics company dealing with international commodity deliveries three months before the war began he built a small factory making construction blocks. of. choice i have a choice. like this war. to work anything. and . all time. brides and grooms join in the islam a gay folk dance the young women's graceful movements symbolize modesty submission and the beauty of the caucuses the bench role is to demonstrate the people's

strength and dignity. to all of the countries where the id diaspora settles jordan syria and turkey they have mostly assimilated but the arab and turkish cultures are performances where discovery the dancers realized that they were really representing a great nation and a great culture and. i ten years ago visited my cup from syria there was a folk culture festival taking place in the capital at the time since then she has dream. performing folk songs on stage and forging a professional career as a singer because singing ambitions had failed back home in damascus bill had instead gone to university to study graphics. when war broke out in syria we decided to move to. russia was our

choice of course we had thought of going to the land of our ancestors before but who aren't completely resolved to go until the very start of the war before it could reach our home into damascus. the first time we knew about a beer was during a folk music festival where we knew her singing style and her voice she had no special training but when she said she wanted join us we weren't surprised we were very glad to help her and to help her make a living. i believe husband is an economics graduate but like most of the syrian men who had to save their families from the horrors of war he added my corp the only job he could find was an odd job man working on a construction site. we don't want to live in a village we want to stay here because there are more job opportunities i need to

start studying again to. see if i'm not. doing my best to have as i can. push an accountant i was walking as finance manager. for the creation. his wife and staying in a michael. pays the rent from the meager savings he could bring from syria but they are no longer than six months. fay left behind a big house in damascus but he can sell it as long as to be continuous. you know i started with less that which are on my husband's studded economy he knows english french arabic and actually it's didn't benefit us it was we learned what

a surprise me because when i moved from the window i saw everything why agents knowing. who. i was for my children to live in peace away from war they will learn russian and they will go to school we go to university. they will become russian citizens i think we will do. it some other time and we.

you know how sometimes you see a story and it seems so for life you think you understand it and then you glimpse something else you hear or see some other part of it and realized everything you thought you knew you don't know i'm sorry welcome to the big picture. yes sir to simply disappearing if he's alive there's been a new day. i'm

had to go back to syria because she has a job and her husband's family is there she wants to help them come here her daughter is still with me she's scared every time she hears loud noises she probably thinks it's war and she's afraid the noises scare her. mother works in the syrian section of the united nations visas are not as easy to come by these days nobody knows how long they may have to wait the couple only see their daughter by skype is usually dead by day and by night for a little girl is fast asleep now the toddler often calls on nuffin and her husband mommy and daddy. buddy in their own body in the every day she says mother body in the body in a syria or saudia in arabic. but. by.
