Filmmaker / Researcher / Multimedia Journalist
For over fifteen years, I worked as a Middle East reporter for national and international publications and as a researcher, producer, and director of TV news reports and documentaries for channels like Al-Jazeera, CNN, and ARTE. Since 2011, I have been making independent hybrid films that screened at international film festivals and received several awards. My feature films include: 74 (The Reconstitution of a Struggle) (2012), and Here I am ... Here you are (2016). I am currently based in California where I am pursuing a Ph.D. in Film and Digital Media at the University of California in Santa Cruz.
