Dreams of playing for Chelsea: the extraordinary journey of 麻豆社 Arabic鈥檚 Namak Khoshnaw
Namak Khoshnaw is a journalist and award winning film maker with 麻豆社 Arabic. His documentary 鈥業raq: A State of Mind鈥� charts the impact of decades of conflict on mental health, 鈥楲ife on the Rubbish Dump鈥� is about the children who pick rubbish in the city of Erbil, and his fascinating 3D journey below the Nabi Yunus shrine near Mosul reveals an ancient Assyrian palace in underground tunnels. These films all took him back to Iraq, the country he left nearly two decades ago, following a dream to play football for Chelsea. It was a perilous journey.
