USA+UAE Film

The Sheik And I

Part of Art, Politics & Protest series.

When asked by the Emirate of Sharjah to make a film about ‘art as a subversive act’, filmmaker Caveh Zahedi was given one rule: don’t make fun of the sheik.

So he did, a lot – making for a satirical, blasphemous frolic through free speech in the Middle East.
