Description
What lies behind the 12-foot-high wall separating Sunni from Shia in Baghdad? The wall was constructed as part of the 2007 U.S. troop surge and was meant to protect the minority Sunnis by enclosing them within their own district. But many Sunnis just feel trapped, and the barrier has done nothing to reduce hostilities between the rival factions. Armed with duplicate IDs, childhood memories, and sheer nerve, an Iraqi expatriate visits both sides of the wall for a look at his troubled hometown in this documentary made for the Al Jazeera news network.
