Alive in Baghdad sheds light on the Faili Kurds - one of the most oppressed groups of Kurds. Like other Kurds, they were abused during Saddam Hussein’s regime. Statistics from the United Nations show that more than 450,000 Faili Kurds were deported to Iran in the 1980s and nearly 10,000 Faili Kurds between the ages of 13 and 30 years old are still missing.
