- Contents Summary
- Documentary about the effects of UN sanctions imposed on Iraq after the Gulf War. UN Resolution 986 limited Iraqi oil sales and determined fund allocation that left Iraqi citizens with less than 25 cents for food and medication per day. A delegation from Medicine for Peace went to Iraq in 1991–92 to assess the medical situation there. The film especially addresses the desperate situation of children of Iraq who were among the most affected.
