The cinema of Iraq developed under Saddam Hussein's regime. However, it went through a downturn as a result of the Gulf War and 2003–2011 war. The development of film and film-going in Iraq reflects the drastic historical shifts that Iraq has experienced in the 20th century. The Iraq War which began in 2003 had an influence on many films being produced.
