The White Helmets (Netflix)

After five years of war, over 400,000 Syrians have been killed and millions more have fled their homes. Hundreds of bombs are dropped on hospitals and schools in rebel-held areas of Syria.

In response to the attacks, the Syrian Civil Defense — also known as the White Helmets — are a group of volunteer rescue workers that rush in to try and save people amid the ruins as bombs continue to fall. Their motto: "To save a life is to save all of humanity."
