Synopsis
Saad, an Iraqi Kurdish peshmerga, was killed fighting Daech at the age of 24. That was five years ago, but Khassro, his brother, is still grieving. For him, his brother died for nothing. For his father, on the other hand, Saad died a martyr's death. By giving a voice to Khassro and Saad's relatives, the film questions the reality of the Kurdish myth today.
