Samir Jamal Al Din
Samir Jamal Al-Din is an Iraqi-born Swiss filmmaker, born in Baghdad, Iraq, in 1955. His work is deeply rooted in the history, identity, and cultural memory of Iraq. Through cinema, he explores the stories of its people, the weight of its past, and the complexities of belonging to a homeland shaped by generations of change. His films are not merely about Iraq; they are about preserving its memory and giving its history a voice.
