Require Arabic actors for film

CASTING CALL FOR LGBTQIA+ ARAB-AMERICANS.

Project: In collaboration with the Arab American National Museum, Mike Mosallam Productions is casting for a documentary short film that will highlight LGBTQIA+ Arab-Americans (of MENA-descent - Middle East and North Africa) with a focus on the intersectionality between their Arab-American and LGBTQIA+ identities. We would love to hear peoples' personal journeys of coming out. Seeking: Real life LGBTQIA+ Arab-Americans of all ages, religious and ethnic identities for a virtual, sit-down interview to discuss the relationship (or lack thereof) between their "Arabness "and their" queerness". We would love to explore how those two are interwoven or kept separate in your life.

Pay: Participants will be compensated $300 flat fee for their interview, which may require more than one day / session, all via Zoom.

Submission: e-mail in***@watchmmp.com with the name(s) of interested participant(s), along with age, phone, email, photo, and a brief overview of their story and why they are compelled to share it with us.

Shoot Dates: February 2021 (via Zoom)
