What the creator captured
Davud Akhundzada visited a unique tea shop in Duhok that serves as a memorial for Peshmerga soldiers who fought against ISIS. He was deeply moved by the combination of delicious local breakfast and the somber atmosphere created by the photos of young martyrs. Despite being the only person in the city wearing traditional Kurdish dress, he felt proud to honor the local culture and history.
