February, 2011. The people of eastern Libya revolt against the brutal regime of Moammar Gaddafi. Yet standing in the way of liberation is the 2-mile sprawling fortress known as The Katiba. For 30 years, the Katiba has stood as a symbol of terror in the center of Benghazi. Holding hundreds of soldiers and heavy artillery, it stands ready to rain death down upon the protesters. And on February 18th, the heavy guns fired. Soon the protests turned into full-scale rebellion, and the people of Benghazi knew that the Rubicon had been crossed. The same equation was in all of their minds. If they moved forward toward the fortress, they would die. And if they retreated, they would die as well. WE WIN OR WE DIE is the story of an ordinary Libyan who understands that there is but one way to stop the bloodshed. One way to gain freedom. The sprawling fortress, the Fist of Gaddafi, the Katiba must fall… We Win or We Die has played in nearly 20 festivals worldwide, including Slamdance and Interfilm Berlin, picking up several awards.
