In this aerial view, a sea of unrecognizable faces fills the town of Akra in Iraq as Iraqi Kurdish people come together to celebrate Newroz Day. The vibrant blue sky serves as a stunning backdrop for the festive atmosphere that permeates every corner of the cityscape.

As multiple generations gather on this special day, their joyous spirits are palpable, creating an atmospheric energy that is truly infectious. With arms raised high in celebration, these real people embody the resilience and strength of the Kurdish community.
