Displaced by the sectarian violence in the city, Maha and her husband are taken in by a distant cousin, Youssef.

As the growing turmoil around them seeps into their household, a rare argument breaks out between the elderly Youssef and his young guest. Born into sanctions and war, Maha knows nothing of Iraq’s good years that Youssef holds dear.

Set over a single day, The Baghdad Eucharist is an intimate story of love, memory, and anguish in one Christian family.

This is a very sad story of a Christian Iraqi gentleman who still believes that he still is equal to his Muslim Co-citizen, and his younger relative who believes that Christians are persecuted in the new Iraq.

Amazing story!
