Best 3 quotes of Shahad Ameen on MyQuotes

I believe young female directors in particular should always remind themselves of the truths of their own stories and not let outsiders influence the authenticity of their films.

Most people view female directors as female only, that we only deal with women's issues and women characters. Although most of my films have dealt with women, I do have work that deals with other matters, and I'm always open to different stories regardless of gender.

People normally view my work as fantasy, which on some level is true, but I do think that my work is more magical realist than fantasy. I believe in the fantasies within each of our realities, i.e., I portray very relatable human issues in a very realistic tone, yet in a magical setting.
