August marked the tenth anniversary of the genocide committed by the so-called ‘Islamic State’ against the Yazidis. Thousands of Yazidis were systematically killed, enslaved and displaced. Since then, the religious minority has been struggling with the consequences of the terror. Four sibling pairs tell their stories before the camera of activist and documentary film-maker Düzen Tekkal from HÁWAR.help. Together with co-director David Körzdörfer, Tekkal accompanies the protagonists through their lives in Germany and Iraq. Talking with Annalena Baerbock, Tekkal emphasises the measures needed today to protect the Yazidis, including the actions required from the German side.
