Bahman Ghobadi
War is Over...! is a compelling documentary film about life in Iraq: a country which suffered the terror of the Baath party under Saddam Hussein. Few weeks after the end of the Iraqi war, Bahman Ghobadi travels to Baghdad. Owing to prohibition of filming the city’s actual conditions, he goes to the countryside to witness the consequences of the war on the population.
