The Election Effect
A film by Kristi Jacobson (2017)
In the wake of the 2016 presidential election, Paramount Network and Shine Global gathered a group of award-winning filmmakers to chronicle what the results meant to students across the country. The resulting Webby Award-nominated series, #TheElectionEffect.
I was thrilled to participate in this series that looks to youth as leaders of today. Check out the Webby Award nominated episode I directed, "Hebh", which is about a young Muslim girl in NYC realizing the power of her voice during a time when anti-Muslim hostility is at an all-time high.
Produced by Oscar Award-winning production house Shine Global and Paramount Network
Nominated for Best Video Public Service & Activism 2019 by the Webby Awards
