Immortals
Maja Tschumi / Switzerland, Iraq / 2024 / 94 min
In October 2019, Iraq sees the eruption of its largest protests since the war’s end. Khalili, a young film-maker, finds himself right in the middle of them and discovers that his camera is the most powerful weapon, capturing things he can barely put into words. Milo also takes part. As a woman, she faces many restrictions and dangers, eventually finding the freedom she has long sought by wearing her brother's clothes. She attends the protests dressed as a boy. Both protagonists are members of a generation that grew up surrounded by war and is now increasingly calling for freedom.
