Contents Summary
Short documentary about Kuwait’s political and diplomatic position in the Arab world. Memories of the 1990 Iraqi invasion are still fresh in the minds of Kuwaitis. The film focuses on the daily pain of a Kuwaiti mother whose son is still a prisoner of war in Iraq. Through her story the film tackles the issue of Kuwait’s alliances and enemies. Their security lies in the U.S., however Iraq can not be put aside. Also, Kuwaiti’s wildly pro-U.S. stance sours relations with other Arab states. How will Kuwait find stability?
