Winners
by Soleen Yusef

Winners, tells the story of 11-year-old Mona (Dileyla Agirman). She has fled Syria with her family and starts a new life at a school in the rebellious Wedding district in Berlin, where anarchy reigns. A film about a lost homeland and a new home, a film about escape, loss and the fights that are worth fighting for.

For filmmaker Soleen Yusef, who is of Kurdish origin, WINNERS is a dream come true: the story of refugee girl Mona, who brings her school to victory, is based on her own story. Soleen wrote the screenplay and directed the film.
