Man Yousefam Madar (من یوسفم، مادر) — meaning "I am Youssef, Mother" — is a powerful Iranian drama set against the brutal backdrop of Ba'athist Iraq. The story follows Yusuf, a young man from Baghdad whose life is shattered when he is seized by the Ba'athist army, leaving his family to fight for his fate.
