Awake, Son of Assyria

Premier feb 8th

Awake, Son of Assyria is a cinematic call to memory, identity, and unity echoing the words of Naum Faiq in his poem “Awake, Son of Assyria.”


Commissioned by Assyriska FF, the national team of Assyria, the film traces a people whose legacy stretches from the great cities of the ancient world to the modern football pitch. Through knowledge, faith, resilience, and sport, the Assyrian story continues.

Using XO LINK’s subject-scanning and identity-capture technology, the entire team was scanned and placed into a shared AI environment — allowing players to move seamlessly between past and present, history and future.

From ancient Assyria to today’s arena, the same individuals carry the same unbreakable lineage forward. The full film premieres February 8th.

We are Assyria. We are indomitable.
