Mosul: Life After ISIS

From Our Own Correspondent

Available for over a year

The changing sights and sounds of Iraq's second city. Kate Adie introduces stories, wit, and analysis from correspondents around the world: Shaimaa Khalil meets a musician finally able to play his violin again and the students returning to their studies in post-ISIS Mosul. John Sudworth finds that reporting from China's Xinjiang province is difficult, risky and expensive - just the way the authorities there seem to want it to be. In Brazil, Katy Watson joins the queue for a yellow fever vaccine amid the panic caused by the latest outbreak. John Watkins delves into Albania's national archive, where thousands of decaying film reels reveal much about its communist past. And Mike Wendling meets Swedish politician Hanif Bali who wants to close the country's borders and keep migrants out. As well as being a social media star, the MP is also a migrant himself having arrived from Iran as a child.
