Firebrand cleric Abdul Aziz Ghazi, an ISIS supporter and Taliban ally, is waging jihad against the Pakistani government, aiming to impose Shariah law. His primary weapon is his expanding network of Islamic seminaries for children as young as four.
World premiering at the 2016 Tribeca Film Fest, Among the Believers was nominated for the Truer Than Fiction Award of the Film Independent Spirit Awards.
The chronicle follows Aziz’s personal quest, and charts the lives of two of his teenage students who are pawns in his ideological war.
