Synopsis: Winner of a Locarno jury prize in 2002, FORGET BAGHDAD tells the forgotten story of four Baghdadi-Jews, all former members of the Iraqi communist party who were forced to emigrate at Israel s founding. Iraqi-born, Zürich-based director Samir (BABYLON 2) achieves a density of ideas and images that extend the boundaries of the documentary form (Vancouver International Film Festival), fashioning a story at once timely and thought-provoking (VARIETY).
