Our River... Our Sky (12A) + Q&A with Maysoon Pachachi

★★★ "A compelling portrait of lives in an Iraqi war zone, Maysoon Pachachi’s fiction debut, set in Baghdad in 2006, focuses on individuals behind the headlines, with the river Tigris a recurring symbol." ~ The Guardian.

Set in 2006 against the backdrop of intense sectarian war, "Kulshi Makoo" follows the stories of a small Baghdad community trying to find some semblance of normality and hope despite unpredictable violence, turmoil, and loss.

Dedicated to the youth of Iraq, London-based Iraqi director Maysoon Pachachi's film offers a glance at the realities of ordinary life in Baghdad, a stark contrast to past Western media portrayals of the 2003 US-led invasion and its catastrophic aftermath.

A raw and powerful display of humanity, her film explores identity and nationalism, and what it means to belong.
