Heval

When a British actor leaves behind his Hollywood career to join the Kurdish YPG in the fight against ISIS in Syria, some view him as a selfless hero confronting a major threat to America. However, others perceive him as a hot-headed narcissist, orchestrating a publicity stunt to boost his career. Upon completing his service, he finds himself unwelcome in both the UK and the US. Through sharp interviews with the actor, his supporters, critics, and leading experts—alongside the actor’s own astonishing helmet-cam footage of fierce battles and interrogations of ISIS fighters—Heval offers viewers an unparalleled look into the war against evil and the contentious role this man plays in it.
