Seperation

Amsterdam Koerdisch Film Festival

After fleeing from ISIS in Shingal, the mother tries her best to keep the family together and at the same time, tries her best to find her lost son.

After fleeing their town, Sinjar in Iraq, which is under siege from Isis, thousands of Yazidi Kurds find themselves without food or water at the top of Sinjar mountain. Faced with no other choice, three men leave to seek sustenance for their families, unaware that an almost safe passage to Kurdistan has been recently opened. Destiny has thus separated these men from their loved ones. The documentary reveals the story of their wives and children who, having reached the refugee camp, remain anxiously awaiting news of their husbands, while at the same time learning to adapt to life in a new setting.
