CAAMFest 2021 - Iman Zawahry and Aizzah Fatima of Americanish

Send us Fan MailWe're (virtually) covering the Center for Asian American Media (CAAM) Film Festival, and bringing you a conversation with director/co-writer Iman Zawahry and co-writer/star Aizzah Fatima from the film Americanish. This is the first American Muslim romantic comedy made by an American Muslim director, and it's about damn time! We get into what it took to get this film made, racism (both outside and inside our own communities), the personal decision to wear a hijab, and the true definition of a feminist. We had a great time with this conversation and loved their energy! Americanish is screening virtually for anyone in California on May 23rd @ 5:00pm, you can but tickets here!To watch Americanish at the Fort Mason Drive-In on May 23rd @ 5:30pm, buy tickets here!You can follow director/co-writer Iman Zawahry on IG & Twitter & FBYou can follow co-writer/actor Aizzah Fatima on IG & Twitter & FB--Be well, stay safe, Black Lives Matter, AAPI Lives Matter, and thank you for wearing a mask. --Buy us a cup of coffee!Subscribe to our channel on YouTube for behind the scenes footage!Rate and review us wherever you listen to podcasts!Visit our website! www.bitchtalkpodcast.comFollow us on Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter.Listen every other Thursday 9:30 - 10 am on BFF.FMPOWERED BY GO-TO Productions Support the showThanks for listening and for your support!
