I Was a Yazidi Slave
The story of Shirin and Lewiza, two Yazidi women captured by IS, who escaped to Germany thanks to the intervention of Dr Jan Kizilhan, an expert on trauma.
In August 2014 an Islamic State massacre of unimaginable proportions took place among the Yazidi people in Sinjar, northern Iraq. Young Yazidi women were separated from the old and taken to the Galaxy Cinema in Mosul. There they were paraded, selected, enslaved, tortured and systematically raped. Some were only 11 years old. We follow the Yazidi women's journey to recovery and ask how survivors of sexual violence can find justice and a path to rehabilitation. This is their story.
