Syria Refugees In Jordan Tell Their Crackdown Stories (VIDEO)

VIDEO: Syrian Refugees Share Their Plight

Construction workers, teachers and farmers who would rather sit in a Jordanian detention center than stay in their homeland shed light on living conditions under the bloody rule of Syrian President Bashar Assad.

The filmmaker, Brent Huffman, smuggled his gear into the detention center, saying he was inspired by the refugees' "dedication to their revolution despite lacking any kind of military support and after losing so many young men to the fight."

While they face difficult conditions in the detention center, these men remain hopeful that their cause will prevail, with one saying, "the regime is like a drowning man in his last moments."
