America denies entry to Syrian behind Oscar-nominated film


(MENAFN) The US has denied entry to a 21-year-old Syrian behind an Oscar nominated documentary because of problems with his documents.

Khaled Khatib did most of the filming for a British movie called The White Helmets.

It's a 40-minute Netflix documentary about volunteers who risk their lives to rescue civilians.

It's widely thought to be one of Britain's best chances for an Oscar in the short documentary category.
