INVESTIGATIVE | ENGLISH
Being Muslim After 9/11 follows filmmakers Mobeen Azhar and Masood Khan on a journey through the country, speaking to people from across the Muslim community to explore how life has changed in the twenty-five years since the September 11th attacks.
The film confronts questions around identity, belonging and what it means to be Muslim in modern Britain.
Mobeen Azhar said: "In so many ways, I've been working on this film for twenty-five years. I've never spoken about this publicly before, but the events of September 2001 were a major motivating factor for me pursuing a career in Journalism.
“There is a thread that connects that period of politics and what we see unfolding around us today. Making this film has been simultaneously therapeutic and devastating. It's a temperature reading and also a wakeup call."
