At a summer camp for Muslim tweens, Tanveer doesn’t expect to find a crush, especially not one who’s her bunkmate. QURAN CAMP is a feature film script by writer/director Samah Meghjee.
As a next step toward making this feature, we are shooting a 5-minute proof-of-concept with a budget of 20K this Fall in Chicago. Making a high quality short focused on our principal characters will allow us to test our creative process and tangibly capture the potential of our film. Your support at this juncture will allow us to work with child actors to tell a queer story in a safe and warm environment. If you would like to contribute, we encourage you to make a pledge below. We will contact you directly with a kick off link to a platform where you'll be able to finalize your tax deductible donation toward our project.
The spirit of QURAN CAMP is joyous, funny, and tender, and it strikes a chord for anyone who has ever felt alienated or misunderstood. It’s a huge honor to be able to make a queer film for Muslims and for all, and your support means the world.
