KURDBÛN To Be Kurdish is based upon Berfin Kar’s war journal in images. Kamkari hopes to express through his documentary what it means to be Kurdish, to him, to Berfin Kar, and to all of the inhabitants of Cizre. “One of the aspects of the massacre of Cizre that most struck me” Kamkari observed, “was its resemblance to my own personal experience in Sna (a Kurdish city in Iran). It was thirty-eight years ago when the Iranian army attacked that defenseless city and bombarded it for more than thirty days just because the inhabitants had decided not to accept the Khomeini regime”.

KURDBÛN To Be Kurdish basiert auf Berfin Kars Kriegstagebuch in Bildern. Kamkari hofft, durch seinen Dokumentarfilm zum Ausdruck zu bringen, was es für ihn, für Berfin Kar und für alle Einwohner von Cizre bedeutet, Kurde zu sein. "Einer der Aspekte des Massakers von Cizre, der mich am meisten beeindruckt hat", so Kamkari, "war die Ähnlichkeit mit meiner eigenen Erfahrung in Sna (einer kurdischen Stadt im Iran). Es war vor achtunddreißig Jahren, als die iranische Armee diese wehrlose Stadt angriff und mehr als dreißig Tage lang bombardierte, nur weil die Einwohner beschlossen hatten, das Khomeini-Regime nicht zu akzeptieren.

KURDBÛN li ser kovara şer a Berfîn Kar bi wêneyan hatiye amadekirin. Kamkarî hêvî dike ku bi belgefîlma xwe, ji bo wî, ji bo Berfîn Kar û ji bo hemû şêniyên Cizîrê wateya kurdbûna xwe bîne ziman. Kamkarî got: "Yek ji aliyên komkujiya Cizîrê ya ku herî zêde bala min kişand" ew bû ku dişibihe serpêhatiya min a şexsî li Sna (bajarekî Kurd li Îranê). Ev sîh û heşt sal berê bû ku artêşa Îranê êrişî wî bajarê bêparastin kir û zêdetirî sî rojan ew bombebaran kir, tenê ji ber ku şêniyan biryara qebûlnekirina rejîma Xumeynî dabûn.
