“My Enemy, My Brother” tells the incredible true story of Zahed, an Iranian child soldier, and Najah, a conscripted Iraqi, who faced each other in the Iran-Iraq War. Finding Najah critically wounded, Zahed defied orders and saved his enemy's life. Their lives diverged, and they had no contact for twenty years, until a single, fateful day brought them back together, forging a bond of brotherhood from the ashes of war.
