About Me


I am a Bahraini film director, producer, and entrepreneur based in the UK and the GCC. 


With a Master Degree in Film Directing from the University of West London in association with Metfilm School / Ealing Studios 

I lead my companies, Green Bee Film UK and KM Studio BH. My work bridges these two regions, aiming to bring powerful, culturally resonant stories to audiences worldwide.

Among my best-known works is the Amazon Prime Hit Film Becoming the Queen of the North. This documentary has garnered attention for its in-depth storytelling and dynamic approach to character exploration. Additionally, my film The Stars Align, now streaming on Amazon Prime, captures unique, transformative moments, bringing global narratives to a wide audience.

Beyond film and television, I have collaborated with some of the world’s most renowned football clubs, including Arsenal and Manchester City, creating content that captures the passion, dedication, and human stories within professional sports. These collaborations have allowed me to merge cinematic storytelling with the world of athletics, producing projects that resonate with sports fans and general audiences alike.

I am also the founder of the Festival of Cinema Collective, which includes the London Festival of Cinema and the Northern Festival of Cinema in Newcastle. These festivals foster emerging talent, celebrate independent cinema, and bridge cultural connections between the UK and the GCC. Through the Festival of Cinema Collective, I am committed to providing a platform for new voices and expanding the reach of global cinema.

My goal remains clear: to inspire, elevate, and captivate through stories that matter. Whether directing, producing, or curating festivals, I am passionate about building narratives that connect and resonate.


A love letter to cinema

My Dearest Cinema,

From the moment I first felt your glow, you’ve been my sanctuary, my constant. You invite me into worlds beyond my own, where each frame, each sound, each breath between characters reveals another layer of life’s mystery. Through you, I’ve traveled to places I could only dream of, felt emotions I never knew existed, and glimpsed the lives of people far and near, familiar and strange.

You’ve taught me that stories have the power to change hearts and shift minds. With you, I’ve learned to look deeper, to notice the smallest gestures, to understand the language of silence, and to find beauty in even the darkest shadows. You have this magic, this way of revealing truths we sometimes struggle to see.

Thank you for giving me a purpose, for allowing me to create and connect. You are where I lose myself and find myself all over again. My journey with you is one I will cherish always—scene by scene, reel by reel, forever.

Yours, always and endlessly
