The "First They Killed My Father" star Angelina Jolie's new TV show is a story that relates to her advocacy. The actress has been actively involved in helping Syrian refugees.
In a report by The Sun late last year, the "By the Sea" director urged world leaders to rescue Syrian refugees in a war zone during her visit in Jordan. She is an envoy of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees doing humanitarian works. Syrian children met with the actress at the Azraq desert camp in Jordan.
She appealed to world authorities to put an end to the Syrian war. The mother of six urged those concerned to send help as the refugees have been staying on the borders with scant resources.
Now that she has a chance to tell a story about the plight of the Syrian refugees, it can be her way of reiterating her concerns to the concerned organizations. The TV show "Hayat Koprusu" also stars football player Cristiano Ronaldo, Arabic musician Nancy Ajram aside from Jolie. This will be Ronaldo's first serious acting project.
It is about a Syrian family refugee that escaped the war and went to Turkey according to Blasting News. It is a story that is real in the eyes of the "Maleficent" actress. Eyup Dirlik directs the drama and will be filmed in Gaziantep part of Turkey's Anatolia region which is very near Syria.
It is not only Brad Pitt's ex-wife that deeply feels the story but also the Turkish footballer. He revealed that he used social media to give a message of hope to the refugees in Syria. The Syrian war has been going on for five years and the devastation and displacement of people were beyond description.
Young children were killed and live in constant fear for their lives. They lack food and their basic needs are scarce in refugee camps due to security reasons.
Angelina Jolie's new TV show can at least convey a cry for help to the world. Stay tuned for updates on her role as it was not yet known as of this writing.
