{"product_id":"iraq-in-fragments","title":"Iraq in Fragments","description":"Product Description\n\nAn opus in three parts, Iraq In Fragments offers a series of intimate, passionately-felt portraits: A fatherless 11-year-old is apprenticed to the domineering owner of a Baghdad garage; Sadr followers in two Shiite cities rally for regional elections while enforcing Islamic law at the point of a gun; a family of Kurdish farmers welcomes the US presence, which has allowed them a measure of freedom previously denied. American director James Longley spent more than two years filming in Iraq to create this stunningly photographed, poetically rendered documentary of the war-torn country as seen through the eyes of Sunnis, Shiites and Kurds.\nWinner of Best Director, Best Cinematography and Best Editing awards in the 2006 Sundance Film Festival documentary competition, the film was also awarded the Grand Jury Prize at the 2006 Full Frame Documentary Film Festival, was named Best Documentary at the Chicago International Film Festival, and was nominated for Best Documentary at the 2007 Academy Awards.\n\nReview\n\n...a sumptuous, oblique masterpiece that defies expectations in every frame. --Time Out\n\nDemands to be seen. . . mesmerizes with its insight and, rarer still, it's beauty. --L.A. Times\n\nIf Longley's astonishing feat of poetic agitation has a precedent in the entire history of documentary, I'm not aware of it. --The Village Voice\u003cbr\u003eASIN: B000R4SKEM\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.B000R4SKEM.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:James Longley\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Dvd\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Individually inspected: Guaranteed to play perfectly or your money back.
