  Marketing & Advertising

These three words plunge a young white woman named Diane into the world of Baghdad in 1937. A 20-year-old nurse, she falls in love with physician Ibrahim Haddad in London and follows him home to Iraq. Baghdad comes alive in vivid detail as she navigates her interracial marriage to Ibrahim, her in-laws, her high-profile but politically sensitive job as a nanny for the Iraqi royal family, and eventually, her relationship with her own biracial children. As the years pass, Iraq devolves into a police state. The Haddads are less and less able to live as they used to or even to find viable paths forward. The three Haddad children grow up to embody the diverse dynamics of their country.
