The Devil's Double is a biopic of the life and times of Uday Hussein's guard and body double Latif Yahia. This feature will put thriller fans right next to Hussein during his most ruthless years as the son of the greatest dictator of Iraq. The film also stars Mem Ferda as Kamel Hannah, Dominic Cooper as Yahia, Ludvine Sagnier, and Raad Rawi. Have a look at the film's early film poster and a photo of Ferda on the set of The Devil's Double inside.

"Bagdad, the playground for the rich and infamous, where anything can be bought - but for a price.

When army lieutenant Latif Yahia, is summoned to Saddam's palace, he is faced with an impossible request - to be Uday's 'fiday' - his body double, or have his family condemned to death. In a world entrenched in betrayal and corruption knowing who to trust becomes a matter of life or death for Latif, as he battles to escape from his forced existence" (Ferda).
