Planet of the Arabs
Ever wonder why after the attacks on the World Trade Center on September 11th 2001 most people automatically thought of Saddam Hussein and Osama Bin Laden?
Out of 1000 films from the years 1896 through 2000 that have Arab & Muslim characters 12 were positive depictions, 52 were even handed and the rest of the 900 and so were negative.
Official selection of the Sundance Film Festival 2005
A trailer-esque montage spectacle of Hollywood's relentless vilification and dehumanization of Arabs and Muslims.
Inspired by the book
"Reel Bad Arabs"
by Dr. Jack Shaheen
