Wadjda Official Trailer from Razor Film on Vimeo.
My interview with the very lovely Saudi filmmaker Haifaa Al Mansour is now out – see the full article at Aquila.

We got talking about the rise of female Middle Eastern filmmakers, the importance of personal victories, filming in Saudi and also cycling (of course!).
