Orange Flavored Love
synopsis: In war-torn Mosul, Nawal cares for her ailing mother Samia, whose condition worsens as medicine disappears from the city. In the few days she has left, Nawal, her mother and their neighbours share small moments of joy. The ladies sing, dance, and tell jokes. Amid illness, poverty and war, they manage to turn something horrible into joy, and create beauty where ugliness prevails.
