Watch my short film, The Transplanted
A short and powerful story about my great-grandfather, Ali, shot in the redwood forest in California, USA.
A Spring for Ali, documentary
This 20-minute documentary follows my journey to Lebanon with my father as we search for the grave of my great-grandfather in the Cemetery of Strangers. When we’re unable to find it, I take on the task of building him a memorial. Through this deeply personal quest, the film provides a first-generation Lebanese-American’s intimate view of Lebanon. The film screened at festivals from Seattle, USA to Beirut, Lebanon and won a student award at the Cedar Rapids Independent Film Festival.
