Filmmaker Ahsen Nadeem walks a difficult and highly personal path with this documentary about faith, and it is a pleasure to share in his journey.

“Pirates”
Stumbles a bit as it heads across the finish line, but this is a well-made, enjoyable story of friendship in the 90s.
“Jazz Fest: A New Orleans Story”
Plays like a slick marketing promotional video created by the New Orleans tourism bureau. The advertisement feel is off-putting.
“Self-Portrait”
An extremely subjective work, I found very little meaning in the film, but I did enjoy the feeling of zen-like peace that it provided.
“The Unknown Country”
Aimless and directionless, drifting through its own existence.
“Stay the Night”
A lukewarm romance that’s forgettable, tedious, and bland.
