From traveling with members of Iraq's elite special operations forces, known as the Golden Division, to sitting down with a captured ISIS fighter accused of helping carry out seven suicide attacks, to filming inside a nearby hospital that is struggling to cope with thousands of injured civilians, to meeting residents of a refugee camp where there is a growing fear that life under the Iraqi army could be even worse than under ISIS, Battle for Iraq is a gripping, first-hand look at the fight for Mosul and its implications.

“Filmmaker Olivier Sarbil’s PBS-aired documentary offers a gut-wrenching look at a so-called “dirty battle against dirty people,” examining the human costs and difficulties of waging warfare against a remnant of fanatic ISIS guerillas who are hidden among civilians in a densely packed city…Highly recommended.” - Video Librarian
