American Jinn

American Jinn was a video project I spent way too much time on. In 2015 I moved to Saudi Arabia and was really excited about an adventure like that. I traveled all over KSA, mostly alone and eventually came up with the idea to make a short film about a man who gets posessed by a jinn when he's traveling through the KSA. So, while I was there I recored gigibites of footage and took thousands of photos. The plot went through multiple iterations and I finally ended up with something fairly linear and added some music that I'd recorded. All in all it too about five years to complete, multiple editing softwares and laptops. It was accepted into the Gulf of Naples Independent Film Festival.
