For Sama is a powerful documentary by Waad al-Kateab and Edward Watts that chronicles life during the siege of Aleppo through the eyes of a young mother. Dedicated to Waad’s daughter, Sama, the film combines personal memories with the horrors of war, showing the daily struggles of doctors, families, and children living under relentless airstrikes. Amid immense loss, it also captures moments of love, resilience, and hope. More than a war documentary, For Sama is a moving testimony that preserves the memories of ordinary people, making it an important work in both documentary cinema and Memory Studies.
