Another great Kurdish film

In the past few years, there have been many good films about the Kurds in Rojava (East Kurdistan) and Bakur (North Kurdistan), and Bashur (South Kurdistan) that are dealing with three important, but tragic Kurdish issue: Refugees Crisis, Anfal and Genocide. Karimi's 1001 Apples about Anfal in Bashur, Karzan Kardozi's I Want to Live about Kurdish Refugees from Rojava, and Kazim Öz's Zer about Dersim Genocide in Bakur. These are among the top three that I have seen so far. Hope to see more films in the future about Rojava. Basure and Bakur.
