A few weeks after the fall of Assad, Ronya Othmann traveled to Syria with her father: on the trail of recent events, through a country that seems to have become a stranger to itself. And everywhere she went, she spoke to people of all backgrounds - people who, between fear and hope, want to believe in a future again.
"I've been on my cell phone again for a few days now. I wake up, I eat, I work unfocused, I read the news. I call my father. My father gets up in the morning, reads the news, goes to work, sits in front of the TV. Assad is gone. The regime has fallen. The regime from which my father - a stateless Yazidi Kurd - fled Syria in 1980. I know the country from visiting my grandparents when I was a child. A country where the portrait of the dictator and his father hung on every corner, a country ruled by a family like a mafia clan. For 54 years."
