Iraqi Kurdistan. The last war against ISIS left 1.6 million people in need, half of them under the age of 18. One year after the harsh conflict against ISIS, the scars remain. Yet, life persists, gradually returning to a semblance of normality. WAR IS OVER follows what happens to a war zone after the fighting has ended.
"War is Over is an insightful and moving documentary that brilliantly showcases the resilience of the human spirit in the aftermath of conflict." —Video Librarian
