Jeder der ansatzweise mit einer Vice der

sollte über diese Film bescheid wissen.
Die komplette Doku gibt es seit kurzem auf youtube.

Heavy Metal in Baghdad



In the late summer of 2006, in the middle of the insurgency,
filmmakers Eddy Moretti and Suroosh Alvi traveled to Baghdad
to meet and interview the only heavy metal band in Iraq, Acrassicauda.
"Heavy Metal in Baghdad" is the story of the band and its members,
young Iraqis whose lives have been distorted and displaced by years
of continual warfare in their homeland.
The filmmakers have collected glimpses into the struggles of Acrassicauda
as they try to stay together and stay alive.
Their struggle is the untold story of the hopes and dreams
of an entire generation of young Iraqis.
