In the spring of 1937, a child dies and his brother is born.
Translated from Arabic, the newborn’s name - Saddam - means ‘one
who confronts’. As his life will demonstrate, it couldn’t be more
appropriate. So how does a boy from a tough peasant background go
on to rise to the very top of Iraq’s leadership? How does his
journey towards global infamy begin? Narrated by Paul McGann. A
