  Fata Morgana and the 1992 Lessons of Darkness. \n\n \n\nFata Morgana is a
 n experimental film about that retells creation myths through desert mirag
 e. Separated into three parts: Creation\, Paradise\, and The Golden Age. I

 hters do their best to control things\, while Kuwaiti women recount atroci
 ties perpetrated by the Iraqis. Watch the trailer here.
