Iraqi vlog series: Hometown Baghdad
BoingBoing reader Mike says,
My company produced a web series about young people in Baghdad. It was shot entirely in Baghdad by a group of brave Iraqi filmmakers. It tells the stories of three young Iraqis trying to survive and get on with life while surrounded by constant danger. The first three are on youtube and more will follow every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. A group of Iraqis has taken to posting comments on our blog and engaging in dialogue with everyone else who posts there. After four years of war, it's an interesting and important window into the realities on the ground.
Here is the youtube playlist link.
Above, the episode Forbidden Salad. "Ausama introduces his family and their questionably heretical eating habits."
