My film about rising Islamophobia and hate crimes against Muslims. Muslim in Trump's America.

In this documentary I look at what it’s like to be a Muslim in a country where many people feel you don’t belong. Since 2015, anti-Muslim hate groups, conspiracy theories and hate crimes have all risen. I met the family of a Kansas farmer serving 30 years for an anti-Muslim bomb plot and I filmed with a right-wing, armed militia who believe in conspiracy theories that Muslims are trying to take over America. Filming before and during the coronavirus pandemic, and while events following the death of George Floyd unfolded around me in America, I got to meet ordinary Muslims whose lives have been shattered by violence and intolerance, along with campaigners who are trying to combat a rising tide of hatred. I wanted to get to the heart of the Muslim experience – and provide insight into their experiences of alienation, rejection and the daily struggles of keeping faith with both Islam and the American Dream.
