              "Planet of the Arabs" is an experimental short illustrating Hollywood's relentless vilification and dehumanization of Arabs and Muslims by making use of TV and film clips to create a "preview" for the ultimate Hollywood movie.

              This documentary dissects a slanderous aspect of cinematic history that has run virtually unchallenged form the earliest days of silent film to today's biggest Hollywood blockbusters. Featuring Jack Shaheen, the film explores a long line of degrading images of Arabs--from Bedouin bandits and submissive maidens to sinister sheikhs and gun-wielding "terrorists"--along the way offering devastating insights into the origin of these stereotypic images, their development at key points in US history, and why they matter so much today.

              A fast-paced 64 minute documentary that covers the world's power politics, war, corporations, deception and exploitation. It illustrates the words of Arundhati Roy, specifically her famous “Come September speech”, in which she spoke on such things as the war on terror, corporate globalization, justice and the growing civil unrest. It's a witty, moving and alarming lesson in modern history.
