OFFICIAL TRAILER 2010
What do you do when your faith questions the culture that raised you?
This film was released in 2010 at a time when music was a major subject amongst Muslims. It was screened all over the world and boycotted in several Muslim communities.
Our story focuses on the perceived conflict between traditional religious ideals and modernity, as well as both the positives and negatives of Western Pop culture on todays’ Muslim youth.
Deen Tight Synopsis (2010):
Music, considered taboo practice by many traditional Muslims, has also become one of the most prominent methods for Muslims to share their faith internationally through Muslim Hip Hop.
Hip Hop is a global phenomenon reaching from the skyscraper laden skies of New York all the way to the deep deserts of Arabia and beyond. It is a subculture that transcends boundaries of language, gender, and religion. Deen Tight brings to the screen the untold story of Western Muslims struggling to find a balance between their culture and their religion.
