Peshmerga is a documentary film by the French intellectual Bernard-Henri Lévy. It was granted a late entry to the 2016 Cannes Film Festival as a special screening. It consists of a "close-up look" at the Peshmerga, the fighting force of the Kurds, battling to establish the state of Kurdistan across the existing states of Syria, Iraq, Iran, and Turkey.[1]

Peshmerga was chosen as an official selection at the New York Jewish Film Festival in January 2017.[2] It was later screened at the United Nations in November 2017 [3]and at the US Congress in March 2018.[4]
