Sleeping in Ruins

This documentary starts with 14 years old Abdulla, and his horse Zuzu, who ride around the city and with them we discover Mosul. Ruins, crowd, unhappy faces, handicaps, and abandoned horses. 

The film tells the story of ordinary people from city of Mosul, who were there when ISIS seized the city and lost part of their lives and their beloved ones; they were there when liberation war started and lost more of their lives and more beloved ones. War has touched them with its brutal fingers.

Now Mosul is liberated but still its citizens spend their days among corpses and night in ruins. As if post war period is just another chapter in their book of suffering.
