In 2014, the Yezidi city of Shingal in northern Iraq was conquered by ISIS. The terror group murdered thousands of men and kidnapped 3,000 women and girls who became sex slaves – later recognized as a genocide by the UN and led to US airstrikes. In a deserted coal mine on the Turkish border, thousands of Yezidi refugees wait for safe return. through the eyes of an older man, a teenage boy, and a family, SHINGAL: Feminicide in the Age of ISIS explores the burdens and dilemmas of this persecuted religious minority. A haunting and moving film about human perseverance and family bonds against the backdrop of massacre, sexual slavery, and forced exile.
