Mediha (2023)
Inspiring, humbling, journalism
12 December 2023
Young Yazidi woman, Mediha, tells her story. Through her lens you live her harrowing world, and the post mortem of surviving ISIS.
Director, Hasan Oswald, adeptly empowers Mediha to narrate her journey, skillfully capturing the dark nuances along side glimpses of hope.
They weave human resilience with stark tragedy and the pursuit of justice. You will think about Mediha long after the film ends, humbled and inspired.

Higher Love (2020)
Grim, close-up, gut-wrenching
13 December 2020 - 6 out of 9 users found this review helpful.
Unparalleled access to a story that that too many of us know personally - friends/family trapped in a drug epidemic that destroys love and lives indiscriminately.... The only cliche I can think of to help describe the feelings I was left basking in after watching Higher Love is "Hope is the last to die"
