Parinawa la Ghobar plot

During the US invasion of Iraq in 2003, Kurdish soldiers fight Saddam Hussein's forces under chaotic conditions. Two soldiers among them, Azad and Rashid, are in charge of the food supply. They leave for the front in a truck loaded with provisions. Along the way they find a five-year-old Arab boy who has lost his way. Azad, whose younger brother was killed in an attack by Saddam Hussein against the Kurds, wants to return the boy to his home. Rashid opposes this. He wants to complete his task first. His anger flares up even more because he hates the Iraqi dictator very much and the boy's name is Saddam himself.
