What is Embargo about?
In 1997, Embargo used images and sound to convey the physical suffering of the Iraqi people, who alone bore the brunt of the political punishment meted out to their leaders, the terrorism perpetrated by the international institutions responsible for such a decree, the reign of injustice elevated to the status of political strategy, and the moral corruption engendered by the embargo. The story is brought to life by director Mounir Fatmi.
