Died at the weekend.
I found his writing and film a great antidote to the relentless contemporary bombardment of humourless representations of muslim cultures. Compassionate and at the same time full of honest criticism.
reading Xala made me laugh out loud, but i thought he deserved his own thread. Though it will likely sink away without reply.
Does anyone have recommendations from his other stuff? I havent got hold of very much; Mandabi... a few novels. Or ideas of fellow travellers to follow up on?
