BATTLE FOR HADITHA (adv 15)

In November 2005 in the Iraqi city of Haditha, 24 men, women and children were allegedly shot by four US Marines in retaliation for the death of a Marine killed by a roadside bomb.

Nick Broomfield’s latest work follows in the vein of his previous fiction film GHOSTS in dramatizing real events, bringing the viewer uncomfortably close up to the action. Bursting with powerful imagery, Broomfield’s disturbingly realistic cinematography imagines the circumstances that provoked the slaughter, finding compassion and humanity amidst the brutality.

Director: Nick Broomfield. Starring: Elliot Ruíz, Yasmine Hanani, Andrew McLaren, UK 2007. 95mins. English/Arabic with English subtitles.
