Canadian photojournalist Rita Leistner travelled to Baghdad in 2003 as a freelance reporter determined to get behind the front lines of the war in Iraq. Over the next 18 months she returned to the country several times capturing images of life with the troops - as well as behind the scenes in a psychiatric hospital.

Reading this BBC report I was specially impressed by one old woman patient in that psychiatric hospital who had managed to keep her spirit high, did her daily fitness program and had a smile on her face. I guess she was either the craziest or smartest person in the city at the time.

See the report for yourself:-
