Inanna Sarkis' New Short Film Will Blend Arab & American Film Together

We bet you didn’t know this, but on top of her YouTube videos, Inanna Sarkis is also a short film storyteller too.

The 24-year-old actress and model recently spoke to V magazine about her filmmaking and goals to blend Arab and American cinema together.

In fact, Inanna‘s next short film is aiming to do just that.

“I’m still putting together the story, but the general outline follows a Middle Eastern girl who moves to America to escape war,” Inanna shares. “She leaves behind her family, deals with loss, and grows up in a foreign and scary place.”

She added about the theme of the story, saying that she doesn’t “think there are enough stories told from Middle Eastern perspectives, especially from a woman’s point of view. So, it’s something I really want to make happen.”

Inanna is also pictured leaving Craig’s with a friend after dining out in Los Angeles over the weekend.
