Thousands of students across the United States have participated in fierce and urgent discussions and engaged in an amazing learning process with "A Jihad for Love" accompanied by filmmaker Parvez Sharma. These lecture/town hall screenings take students and faculty into a surprising world of an Islam that is poetic and erotic and sensual and dogmatic at the same time.
In his inimitable style Parvez takes the audiences through a riveting journey at breakneck speeds through 14 centuries of Islamic history!

Congratulations for this extraordinary and brave project.
I am a long time film and television producer based in NYC with many years of international experience on four continents including several countries in the Middle East and North Africa. As a lesbian and someone who has spent a reasonable amount of time in different muslim countries (for business and pleasure), who has lived closely with muslim communities in Europe, has many muslim friends and who is always trying to learn more about Islam and has had a personal close Islamic experience, your film touched me deeply. I would have been delighted and honored to be part of such an amazing project. Still, I will be glad to collaborate with you and your team in future developments.
Best of luck and will spread the word about the film you have so beautifully produced to as many and as much as possible.
Best,
Valerie
