For some time now, the film has been widely shown in Muslim countries-including a multi-city tour in Indonesia, where even protesters showed up at a screening and a hugely successful screening in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia attended by many including the former Prime Minister's daughter, who was reduced to tears.
The latest is the following screening in Dhaka, Bangladesh-where I had filmed as well.
If you are in Bangladesh, please go and tell all your friends to go as well.Click on this link below for details.

Dear Parvez Sharma,
My name is Sophia Gurulé and I am the treasurer for Fordham University Amnesty International in New York City. Next November our club, alongside two other clubs - Rainbow Alliance (which deals with LGBT related issues) and MESA (Middle Eastern Students Association) - are looking to host a screening of "A Jihad For Love" for all interested Fordham students. However, to do so requires public performance rights which would need to be granted by whoever owns them.
Could these rights be waived in writing, and if not, is there a specific price quote?
This information is needed as soon as possible so a timely response would be greatly appreciated. Please respond to sophia.gurule@gmail.com.
Sincerely,
Sophia Gurulé
FUAI Treasurer

Hi!
It is a great blog. I'm happy to visit you!
