Description
Soleiman al-Omar and his brother Farid operate a traditional mill, run by their family since 1934, in the countryside of the northwestern city of Afrin in the rebel-held part of Syria's Aleppo province. Passed along generations, this decades-old mill offers a taste of a simple past as villagers flock in search of a "delightful" product. "This [mill] is a legacy passed on from my grandfather to my father, and then I took over working on it. It's an old tradition", says Soleiman. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
