I was just curious to know if anyone actually saw the film/vlogumentray psoted here two days ago. It would be great to get your feedback.... as the author of this modern documentary released in video clips at Getmindthegap.com
Summary: Nadia Aamer's ©Vlogumentary; is a “personal point of view” on the social, cultural and political issues that we face in a multicultural city like London today. This is a narrative of a person who believes that human interactions are much more complex than what we see on television while criticising the mainstream media for creating misunderstandings between this and those “other regions of the world”. This is an individual's effort to bridge the gap which infects the minds of the people through repeated exposure to negative imagery. What bridges the gap is the ability of the British society to laugh at oneself.

I saw it and I thought that the conversation with the Irish guy was interesting. Another thing is that I think that perhaps a different approach should have been taken in trying to assess non-Muslims reactions to Muslims.
