hi, i was there in 1977-1978, working at the Al Hazen institute, and i remember the place well. A big shame at what has happened, nearly all the people were nice to be with, very few burkas, beer and entertainment. I still wonder what happened to the ones i met. i also have a few photos if you want to see them. Great movie - i loved seeing it and i bumped into Saddam just before he became leader.
