Namak Knoshnaw spent a year making the BBC Arabic documentary Iraq: A State of Mind. It follows the stories of three people dealing with the psychological impact of half a century of war, invasion, sectarian violence and occupation by the so-called Islamic State. Namak grew up in Iraq, and it is a story close to his heart.
