The Long Road to Tripoli: Spotlight







Al Jazeera reveals an in-depth look at a group of Libyan revolutionaries as they join the fight against Muammar Gaddafi. Really astonishing and gives a look into how much life changed for these people. I think this does a good job of revealing to us how many of these revolutionaries came from all parts of life to fight for their freedom, and really opens your eyes to the fact that these are all normal people who took up arms. It specifically follows one family in particular that has been in exile in London, and has now made the trip back to Libya to join the fight for freedom. Truly touching tale and one that highlights the obstacles faced by the Libyan revolutionaries as well and personal troubles they had to overcome to get there. A great documentary capturing the human aspect of the war.
