THE FILM

THE LIST

Kirk Johnson is a modern-day Oskar Schindler fighting to save Iraqis whose lives are in danger because they worked for the U.S. government and military to help rebuild Iraq. Now, perceived as traitors, they are systematically hunted—killed, kidnapped, and forced into lives on the run. Frustrated by a stagnating government bureaucracy in the U.S. that fails to protect its Iraqi allies, Kirk begins compiling a list of their names and works with a team of lawyers to get them out of harm’s way.
THE LIST was filmed over four years in Iraq, Syria, Jordan, Egypt, and the United States.
