Children of ISIS: Iraq's Lost Generation -Full Documentary

Nov 5, 2023
An intimate look at the children and widows of ISIL who languish in camps, ostracised by their own communities.
Tens of thousands of children were born into or lived under ISIL’s (ISIS) reign in Iraq and Syria between 2014 and 2017.

Now, many of those young people are languishing in camps or in Iraqi communities where they are social outcasts – some orphaned and some with their widowed mothers.

There are several tens of thousands of “children of ISIS”, whose families had pledged allegiance to the caliphate. They’re stigmatized, and their existence is not legally recognized in “Post-ISIS” Iraq. Without I.D., they have no access to medical care, food assistance, nor, above all, to education. This unprecedented investigation offers a voice to those minors, the social outcasts of a new Iraq that only a handful of NGOs are trying to help. Around the Mosul area, in Iraqi Kurdistan and Northeastern Syria, this documentary takes the form of a journey on war-torn lands, to meet this generation who endured the reign of the Islamic State, a war for liberation and its resulting violence, and now tries to find a future, between resilience and revenge.
