Kurbaan (2009)

A woman finds that her neighbors are terrorists, and her husband is not who he claims to be.

it took me forever to find this film. my mother emailed me a clip and i just needed to watch it (of course it was uploaded by arabs who don’t bother mentioning films or crediting anyone).

very exciting. lots of gasps and what in the world just happeneds. the only thing i hated was their idea of a proper film poster. it’s very misleading and very irrelevant, but yeah, i guess that’s what marketing is for the entire world. anyway, ace film!

Artist Dresses Famous American Celebrities And Politicians In Traditional Arab Garb

Playing on the dynamics of international diplomacy and social tolerance, artist Mohammed Kanoo decided to cover famous celebrities in Arab clothes. Displayed at an exhibition in the UAE’s Meem Gallery, the artist’s set Fun With Fen (Fen means art) depicted celebrities like Barack Obama, Will Smith, Angela Jolie, John Travolta and Clint Eastwood. We can think of a lot of people who would be alarmed/happy seeing Obama in Arab dress.

In his own words:

The bottom line is that if tolerance is an important aspect of our faith as Arabs and Muslims, contemporary human difficulties are represented as common problems for all of humanity and that is what brings us together more than what divides us.
