Lost in Bremerhaven is the story of the Iraqi freight ship "Al-Zahraa" (The Rose) that has been stuck and rotting in Bremerhaven harbour for the past 17 years.When Saddam Hussein invaded Kuwait, the ship was stopped there by the UN Two men from Iraq, Adel Jewad Kadem and Abdullah Moussa Subhi, came to Bremerhaven in August 2002 to watch over the ship. When the USA invades Iraq, Adel and Abdullah watch on TV the bombing of Baghdad and their home country falling into chaos. They return to Iraq two year later. Iraq has very much changed.
