Saeid Jaf, a mercenary commander of Iraqi Baath Party, is now on trial on the new Iraqi Court, accused of attending the Anfal genocide Campaign against Kurds. Jaf believes that he’s saved more than 1000 people within the Campaign. He’s now wandering around just to find some witnesses who has saved them once from Baathists and asks them to tell the true story in front of his camera. He believes that there is only one man in history he can be compared to, and that’s Oskar Schindler, the man who saved the lives of hundreds of Jews during the Second World War.
