Read: Read Michael Moore's Letter Opposing Michigan's Syrian Refugee Ban The Syrian Civil War has been a violent and remorseless affair that has left both sides bloodied, exhausted, and desperate. But the true victims of this perpetual conflict are the people who are not invested in either side and have been swept up in the debacle, and written off as collateral damage. These people have lost homes, families, jobs, safety, hygiene, comfort -- the list goes on. So, as Jordan and other surrounding nations deal with the ever-growing Syrian refugee crisis, socially conscious filmmakers have taken it upon themselves to try to raise as much public awareness as they can, to help those who have lost everything. In Participant Media's "Salam Neighbor," documentarians Chris Temple and Zach Ingrasci ("Living on One Dollar") have a unique opportunity to recount the harrowing experiences that these refugees face on a daily basis.
