An Act of Worship

Institute History

Description

An Act of Worship is an exploration of the last 20 years of Muslim life in America. Weaving together present-day vérité footage of women activists who came of age after 9/11 with materials sourced from Muslim communities across the country, the film revisits pivotal moments in US history from the perspective of Muslims, opening up a window into their world through collective memory. This is what it means to be a Muslim in America.

As you use our Online Archives, please understand that the information presented from Festivals, Labs, and other activities is taken directly from official publications from each year. While this information is limited and doesn't necessarily represent the full list of participants (e.g. actors and crew), it is the list given to us by the main film/play/project contact at the time, based on the space restrictions of our publications. Each entry in the Online Archives is meant as a historical record of a particular film, play, or project at the time of its involvement with Sundance Institute. For this reason, we can only amend an entry if a name is misspelled, or if the entry does not correctly reflect the original publication.
