An evil not seen since the Nazis is carrying out a medieval genocide in the Middle East until modern technology and American representative democracy comes to the rescue.
Now That Should Be A Movie
Short Pitch
It is called Sinjar.
It is a survival drama.
In the vein of Defiance.
It is like 13 Hours meets Dunkirk.
It follows poor Yazidi widow Alifa Murad living in Iraq
And young professional reporter Dakhil Shammo living in America.
As they try to survive and alert the world of the genocide being carried out against the Yazidi by ISIS.
Problems arise when the Yazidi people are trapped on Mount Sinjar without food and water and the world does not seem to pay any attention to the unfolding crime against humanity.
Together they will survive and work with government agencies until the American military and its allies come to the rescue.
The idea came to me when I was thinking about great moments of humanitarianism in American history and vaguely remembered something about a rescue in northern Iraq in 2014.
My unique approach would be the juxtaposition and cognitive dissonance of representative democracy and comfort and security in America and Europe as modern forms of communication alert people to the medieval holocaust unfolding against the Yazidis in the harsh environment of Mount Sinjar.
