LA ARAB FILM FESTIVAL
ASAAD ABDUL MAJEED, THE HITMAN UPSTAIRS
An Iraqi film, Qarantina, shot in Baghdad was by far the most powerful film shown at this years LA Arab Film Festival.

It’s Never Too Late – How a Day on Set Set Me Free
I’ll admit it. I had given up on film, forever. I was 37, had two toddlers with special needs, found myself living in the middle of Central Pennsylvania and handled mindless data entry for my husband’s family business. My high haired, heavily made-up, mini-skirt wearing days were over. I traded in auditions for doctor’s appointments and pageants for Pampers. I wrote letters to medical assistance instead of writing screen...
