My Prison, my Home.
A film by Mano Khalil 2009
As a part of the Al Anfal operation, which lasted
from the end of March till the end of September
1988, Saddam Hussein’s security forces imprisoned
hundreds of Kurdish families in the Nizarke prison
and in various other prisons also. Under Saddam,www.ekurd.net
these prisoners awaited
death and dreamt of freedom. Saddam’s fall saved
many of them from death. However, when the long
awaited freedom finally came, there was nothing left
for them except to make their cells their homes.
Because their villages were completely destroyed and
they lost all their possessions, these families now
live in their former prisons and again dream of a
different life.
Anfal was an anti-Kurdish campaign led by the former
Saddam regime between 1986 and 1989 and involved a series
of military campaigns against |

Mein Kerker, mein Haus
Ein film von Mano Khalil 2009
Im Rahmen der Operation Al Anfal, die von Ende März
bis Ende September 1988 dauerte, inhaftierten die
Sicherheitskräfte Saddam Husseins hunderte von
kurdischen Familien unter anderem im Gefängnis von
Nizarke.
Zu Saddams Zeiten warteten diese Gefangenen auf
ihren Tod und träumten von der Freiheit. Der Sturz
von Saddam Hussein rettete manchen von ihnen vor dem
sicheren Tod. Jedoch, als die lang ersehnte Freiheit
kam, konnte sie ihnen nichts mehr bieten als die
Möglichkeit, ihre Zellen in Wohnzimmer zu verwandeln.
Diese Familien leben heute, nachdem ihre Dörfer
komplett zerstört worden sind und sie ihr gesamtes
Hab und Gut verloren haben, in ihrem ehemaligen
Gefängnis und träumen erneut von ihrer Erlösung.
