My Bio :
born and raised in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. studied medicine and ended up being a full licensed Psychiatrist in my country.
my passion with movies started when I was young, probably when I was 12 years old, always pushed my friends to making hand camera films.
managed to make home video films as hobby throughout the years.
currently residing in Los Angeles, CA.
the Project :
My goal is to create a unique dramatic short film that captures and explores the errors of how terrorists think and behave. how they misinterpret messages from Qura'an.
the film involves an interaction between two Muslim men from both sides of the law, each with his own opinion on what Jihad is all about. the film will try to bridge the gap between the cultural differences and political views of the West and the Middle east.
Written by myself for the screen with the aim to submit to world wide festivals, this project will shoot in Los Angeles with high quality production company and will be directed by Konstantinos Mousoulis a talented director who directed several short films in America.

Our goal is to make a professional film using the best equipment in film making, and hiring the best crew we can find to bring out a very artistic looking film.
Challenges :
Making a film is not an easy task, and it was extremely difficult for me especially that I am from Saudi Arabia, a country that does not even have movie theaters to go to.
However, I am extremely passionate about my project and with the message it carries, I am here in Los Angeles now determined to make my film and show it to the world and I am ready to tackle any obstacles I might face since I came from so far away to prove that other parts of the world are passionate about movie making, and plan to bring it to life with a strong message.
