Possessed by Djinn (previously titled We, the Jinn)

Jordan, Germany

Producers: Carl-Ludwig Rettinger, Dalia Al Kury

Production Company: Dalia Al Kury Productions, Lichtblick Film

Project Logline:

If so many people in the Islamic world have experienced the Jinn, then what role do they play? What can these supernatural creatures reflect about our darkest, most hidden desires?

Director's Quote:

In rural Jordan, Jinn sheikhs still play the role of psychologists and doctors. In believing in the Jinn, a strict traditional society has created a loophole where out-ofthe- norm behavior can be tolerated. By listening to the people involved, I hope to push my limits of understanding the meaning of faith.
