Through the Fire

'Through the Fire' shows a side of Somalia and Somaliland beyond the all-too-familiar news reports of piracy, war, and famine. It tells the stories of remarkable Somali women who risk their lives to run essential humanitarian projects that have sustained their communities through decades of conflict.  It gives an intimate portrait of the life and work of three exceptional women, who, have each fought against seemingly insurmountable obstacles to spearhead efforts towards peace and renewal.  The stories of these women and all that they have achieved are truly inspiring.  When the world abandoned them and their communities, they refused to give up or walk away.
