يُقتل المواطنون السوريون العزل السلميون وتُغتال أحلامهم في التغيير لمجرد مطالبتهم السلمية بمواطنتهم.
إن الاستبداد والفساد الأمنيّ الذي اعتقل السوريين وعذبهم و ابتلع أحلامهم وأموالهم وعيشهم يَقتلُ اليوم أجسادهم وأرواحهم بالرصاص.
نحن السينمائيين السوريين الموقعين هنا، نرى أن إصلاحاً لا ينطلق الآن من كفّ يد الأجهزة الأمنية عن عيش المواطنين و الكف ّعنْ مَنحِ هذهِ الأجهزةِ الحصانةَ والرخصة للقتل أو الاعتقال أو التعرض للمتظاهرين السلميين… وإغلاق صفحة السجن السياسي إلى الأبد، هو إصلاح موؤود.
وننادي كل سينمائيٍّ في البلدان العربية وفي العالم للمساهمة في وقف القتل بكشفه وشجبه وبإعلان التضامن مع شعب سوريا ومع حلمه بالعدالة والحرية والمساواة.

A Call from Syrian Filmmakers to Filmmakers Everywhere
Peaceful Syrian citizens are being killed today for their demands of basic rights and liberties.
It is the same oppression and corruption that kept Syrians prisoners and swallowed their freedom, properties and lives for decades, that is assassinating their bodies and dreams today.
We, the undersigned Syrian filmmakers, believe that a reform which does not start with putting an end to security forces control over our people’s lives and bodies, and with closing an era of shameful political imprisonment for good, is not enough.
Hereby, we call on all filmmakers in the world to contribute to stopping the killing by exposing and denouncing it, and by announcing their solidarity with the Syrian people and with their dreams of justice, equality and freedom.
