Sheikh Jackson
Available on Philo, Plex
A devout imam (Ahmad Alfishawy) starts to question both his faith and his own values upon hearing the news of Michael Jackson’s death. Having discovered the King of Pop at a young age, Ahmad’s teenage years were heavily influenced by Jackson’s music and fashion - much to the chagrin of his conservative father. Now deeply religious, the sheikh discovers that he cannot easily escape the former, more carefree spirit of his youth.
