Mountain of Servants is the story of five Syriac Christians who struggle to protect what's left of their dwindling community in Southeastern Turkey. In a period of turmoil across the Middle East, I hope this little-known story of the Syriacs makes a difference in how people see the region and its diverse communities.

I directed Mountain of Servants while on exchange in Turkey in 2014. It's my first serious documentary film and was a very difficult undertaking. Please feel free to reach out to any of the crew members to offer feedback, comments, or general thoughts. We'd love to hear from you!
