At six years old, Dounia leaves Aleppo with a few nigella seeds in her hand. Guided by the Princess of Aleppo, she embarks on a journey toward a new world, filled with hope despite the pain of exile. Inspired by filmmaker Marya Zarif's own experience and that of her compatriots, Dounia and the Princess of Aleppo is both a poetic tale and a heartfelt tribute to Levantine culture-its multiculturalism, language, and gastronomy. This animated film delicately addresses themes of grief, war in Syria, and the resilience of those forced to leave their homeland while searching for a brighter future
