Under the Wire

Driven to expose the Syrian regime's brutal suppression of dissent and the harrowing effects of the war on civilians, veteran photographer Paul Conroy and renowned war correspondent Marie Colvin decided to infiltrate enemy lines and enter the chaos and horror of Homs.

However, tragedy struck before their documentation was complete. Colvin was killed by a rocket, which also severely injured Conroy's leg. As Syrian forces advanced on his position, Conroy faced a desperate and terrifying escape from a regime intent on his death.

"Under the Wire" chronicles the epic and untold story of Conroy and Colvin's final, tragic mission together. It offers a rare and moving portrayal of an extraordinary woman driven by an unwavering commitment to "bear witness." This account is as much about courage and survival as it is a touching narrative of a friendship forged in the midst of war.
