Jiyan (2002)
A virtually untold story.
25 March 2010
Jano Rosebiani depicts a tragic, yet wonderful story of rebirth with Jiyan! As an American watching the film, the passion and bravery of the Kurdish people were borough to life in a very special way! This film was outstanding in every aspect, from it's hum-ours moments, to the heartfelt sadness of the aftermath of the Chemical Attack by Saddam Hussein in 1985.
What makes this film special is the extraordinary way Jano Rosebiani portrays hope, while surrounded by hopelessness, as well as an intimate understanding of just what a proud people the Kurds are! Jiyan is a loving, funny, sad, and intellectual movie worthy of watching! It will make you feel alive!
