Recent Projects

The Film House has produced a TV Commercial for British Council Qatar: "DEFINITELY ABLE VOICES" [6] [7]

Recognize the lyrics? We found it amusing, although The Film House’s Justin Kramer explains it also has a serious message:The ad is an attempt to bring a sense of humor to a serious matter. By using comedy and pop culture, we think we may be able to reach a wider audience to raise awareness about respecting the Holy month of Ramadan.[8] [9]
