Episode 8 - Fighting Cultural Expectations to Enter the Film World (feat. Hussain Alokaily)

In a truly inspirational episode, we bring on our cousin Hussain Alokaily to talk about his interests in film and directing. Hussain goes into how he got into film and why he chose directing, talking to us about a few of his projects and milestones along the way. The conversation then steers into how cultural and societal expectations can often stop us from pursuing what we love. Hussain's experience with this was profound, and his journey in defying these expectations and winning the support of his friends and family in his journey are very inspirational. Zaid and Hussein have also had similar situations and everybody discusses how they relate to the issue. Hussain's film making ability is clearly great, and the sky is the limit for him in his pursuit of his dreams.Hussain's YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCh5jvGWyW41NlpwG2qyMOuw--Instagram: @thrudeepwatersTik Tok: @thrudeepwatersTwitter: @thrudeepwaters_Hussain's Instagram: @alokailyhussain
