The Lost Muslim was named runner-up in the TV category in the 2016 Sandford St Martin Awards last week. The Sandford St Martin Trust promotes thought-provoking, distinctive programming that engages with religion of all faiths, ethics or morality. The Lost Muslim sees Baz embark on a personal odyssey as he turns to Ireland and abroad in search of his Muslim heritage, looking at how the culture and faith can co-exist with his own very Irish identity. He visits his beloved sister in Cairo, who was at the heart of the Tahrir Square protests, and is a devout Muslim. The show was aired on RTE One. |
