American Herro - A Film and a Feast

The film "American Herro" details Herro Mustafa's journey from a refugee camp fleeing terror in Iraq to Minot, ND where she overcomes her frightening first years to eventually achieve the American dream.

Herro is now the Senior Advisor to Vice President Biden for the Middle East, Afghanistan and Pakistan. Her work over the past two administrations has been instrumental in making progress towards peace.

The film will be shown this Sunday, April 26th, at 4 p.m in the Fargo Theatre. It is free and open to the public. Herro and filmmaker Kirk Roos will be available for a question and answer session following the screening of the documentary. A Kurdish dinner will follow at the HoDo Restaurant for a free will donation.
