CHILDREN OF WAR

Cinema Space presents a screening of Turtles Can Fly, the 2004 film by Bahman Ghobadi that was the first movie to be filmed in Iraq after the fall of Saddam Hussein. The feature mixes humour and tragedy in a story about children struggling to survive in a war zone, including a 13-year-old who installs satellites, and a pair of siblings, one of whom may be clairvoyant.
