    I am so happy to share I Am the Revolution's trailer! This is my first feature film as a sole director. I would have never made it without the talent and the effort of many women. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

    Just returned from Baghouz where I met large number of volunteers. They are brave, fearless, compassionate people who feel suffering of others. These selfless, humble people chose to fight against ISIS and free enslaved women & all oppressed minorities. Deep respect for them
