Children of the Left 2014 Directed by Urok Shirhan

Children of the Left speaks to the legacy of Communism in the Middle East, North Africa and beyond, which led many families, the artist’s included, to flee their homes. In Iraq, communist parties presented the greatest opposition to Saddam Hussein. The film is a kind of historical and political cartography infused with personal biography, accepting the inheritance of a historical and political struggle that is contradictory, ongoing, and displaced.
