In Nice Bombs filmmaker Usama Alshaibi returns to Baghdad to reunite with his family after nearly 24 years. This documentary navigates through his unique relationship to an Iraq that is much different than the country of his childhood.
Usama captures the conflicting reactions to the conditions of life in Baghdad. Through a wide range of opinions and experiences he provides a broad panorama of voices long neglected under Saddam's regime.
His cousin Tareef enters the room upon hearing an explosion. "It's a bomb. A Nice Bomb," he explains. The phrase is indicative of his family's nonchalance about their situation. As one young boy put it, "We're Iraqis. It's normal."
With humor and resilience Nice Bombs explores Usama's dual role as both Iraqi and American.In Nice Bombs filmmaker Usama Alshaibi returns to Baghdad to reunite with his family after nearly 24 years.

Dying is easy to do; it's the living that's hard to do. Living next door to those who are different than who you are can be very hard (for both of us).
If a roof collapses onto a family, and only an unbeliever responds -- what will the house-owner do? Accept the help offered, or refuse the help?

i think anyone who orders to kill and murder in the name of whatever reason should be made to work with people who have nothing in their lifes. It would be nice to see them at work with war orphans for the rest of their lifes. selfish egocentric greedy criminals they are.
