Gay Indian Muslim helmer Parvez Sharma is directing the pic, which looks at gay, lesbian, and transgender Muslims across the Muslim and Western worlds.
"The world right now needs to understand Islam, and these are the most unlikely storytellers of Islam," Dubowski said, who is producing 'Allah.'

Transgendered Muslisms are confused about more than just gender.

I can just hear one of the lines in the film: Dammit Mohammad I wish I could quit you.....

HAAA! Going to be funny watching Euro Surrender monkey pseudo Intellectuals response to this. After all this will be pitting two victim classes, gays and Muslims against each other.

Rushdie went into hiding for far less than this...I foresee all distributors refusing to run with this out of 'sensitivity' concerns (i.e. self-preservation)...even those that ran Brokeback Mountain.

A "transgendered" Moslem?
Is this when Abdul wears a burkah and sings "I feel pretty, oh so pretty..."?
