Sisters Apart

Synopsis

Daphne Charizani, screenwriter of "The Audition", directs this drama presented at the Berlin Festival about a German soldier looking for her sister in Iraq. Rojda is a young German soldier with Kurdish-Iraqi roots who has lived in Germany since she was a child. We know she is looking for her mother Ferhat in a Greek refugee camp. When the two finally meet after so many years apart, joy overtakes them. But her happiness soon fades when Rojda learns that her sister Dilan is still in Iraq. She decides to request a transfer to Erbil, in Iraq, in order to find her. Once there, Rojda quickly gains the trust of Kurdish peshmerge women fighting against the Islamic State. But the more intensely she searches for her sister, the more trapped she is between the two worlds she knows.
