Description

Soon after the US invasion of Iraq in 2003, filmmaker Maysoon Pachanchi returns to Baghdad after 35 years. She accompanies her father, 80-year-old Adnan Pachachi who is returning to head the committee responsible for drafting Iraq's temporary Constitution and Bill of Rights. A unique glimpse into the resilience of the Iraqi people as they struggle to sustain their lives without succumbing to despair and defeat.
