The Book of Ashes 

Written by Emil Sher

Directed by Annie Valentina

Based on a  true event,  The Book of Ashes uses shadow puppetry to tell the story of a librarian in Iraq who, with the help of a child, rescues over 30,000 priceless books from their library during the bombing of Iraq in 2003. A beautiful and magical tale about surviving war and chaos while maintaining hope through community and the power of storytelling
