Silvered Water extends the possibilities of visual expression to the fullest. In the face of appalling unbearable violence, what can cinema and the filmmaker do? This film, made at the risk of the filmmakers' lives, provides us with an answer. Their film becomes a validation of their lives-something documentary should essentially be. We express our respect for the filmmakers' courage and ability to take action.

For the Directors' ability to use the "One Thousand and One Eyes" in cinematographic terms and to document, in a both private and collective manner, the atrocities of war encumbering nowadays on the insecure day-to-day lives of the people of Syria.
