Namak Khoshnaw is a journalist and award winning film maker with 91Èȱ¬ Arabic. His documentary ‘Iraq: A State of Mind’ charts the impact of decades of conflict on mental health, ‘Life on the Rubbish Dump’ is about the children who pick rubbish in the city of Erbil, and his fascinating 3D journey below the Nabi Yunus shrine near Mosul reveals an ancient Assyrian palace in underground tunnels. These films all took him back to Iraq, the country he left nearly two decades ago, following a dream to play football for Chelsea. It was a perilous journey.
