Kurdistan is a roughly defined geo-cultural territory wherein Kurdish language and national identity form a distinct majority. However, Kurds are the world's largest ethnic group without a recognised state. FEMALE VOICE OF KURDISTAN presents eight female singers, introduced by cinematic portrait films, live on stage in Berlin and virtually online for concerts filmed in 2023 on locations across Kurdistan.
