In the Name of God

The film delves into the complex social landscape that has unfolded in the Muslim community since the tragic events of September 11th. It captures the ongoing struggle between Fundamentalist and Liberal Muslims, a divide that not only pulls them apart from Western society but also within their own ranks. The plight of educated, modern Muslims is laid bare as they find themselves caught between two worlds; their progressive outlook on life and westernized attire subjecting them to criticism and harassment from the more conservative fundamentalist factions. Meanwhile, they face scrutiny and suspicion from Western society, who see them as potential threats simply due to their Muslim names. Through its compelling narrative, the film sheds light on the challenges faced by this marginalized group, offering an intimate portrayal of a community navigating a deeply divisive era.
