Diab returns to Syria to be part of the revolution and witness a dream come true but is faced with what he fears the most. Another tragedy hits Ghufran's family, but a defected officer named Caesar has offered families some answers. We also hear the heartbreaking story of Noor, an expectant mother, who realises that not taking part in the revolution doesn’t mean that she’s safe.

Behind the Sun is co-produced by Message Heard and The Syria Campaign, in collaboration with the Association of Detainees and the Missing (ADMSP) and the Syrian Center for Justice and Accountability (SJAC) under its project On the Margins No More.
