HIJABI + Q&A

QUOTES from audience

“A fantastic evening in the Houses of Parliament with BAFTA and IDFA award-winning filmmaker Samir Mehanovic and his documentary preview of Hijabi; Your testimonies and unflinching accounts combating Islamophobia were inspiring to not only myself but so many others out there.” Maleeha Ahmed  - Media, Journalism and Publishing Student

“The fantastic and inspirational women Zamzam Ibrahim, Adama Juldeh Munu, Asma Shuweikh, Amna Abdullatif and  Tasnim Nazeer were truly wonderful to hear from and a sense of belonging was felt in that room. Some of the moments in that film had tears in my eyes as it brought back my own memories on the difficulties I've faced.” - Sharin Hussain, Apprentice Journalist at The Times

“In recent times, there has been a concerning rise in harmful rhetoric within British society, a trend that has unfortunately made its way even into the realm of British politics.

This escalating hostility underscores the urgency of amplifying narratives like those presented in "Hijabi."... Documentaries like "Hijabi" play a vital role in challenging misconceptions, creating dialogue, and ultimately contributing to the creation of a more inclusive and satiable society.  Share your support…”
