Released in 2009, The First Movie is a dokumentarfilm film directed by Mark Cousins, running about 56 minutes. “We tell stories not for revenge, but to find our place in the world.” — that tagline sets the tone.

What it’s about. Filmmaker Mark Cousins, who was brought up in a Northern Irish war zone, travels to Goptapa, a Kurdish-Iraqi village of just seven hundred people on a tributary of the Tigris river, and tries to make a dream film about a place that is normally only portrayed in current affairs programmes. He gives the kids cameras, and they make their own little movies about war, love, a fish that goes to a magical place, and a chicken who debates justice.
