Khaula Kai Mahmood
Everything that my guest, Khaula Kai Mahmood, makes sounds easy is actually really, really hard. Making films is hard. Speaking Pashto and Farsi is hard. Making a film about veterans is extremely difficult. But she does all of these things...so easily.
Khaula has lived around the globe, gotten a degree in architecture, worked in tech, but she's now a filmmaker and on this podcast, talking about raising money for her film FRAYED FLAGS. She shares her experience growing up the daughter of a veteran and how that sheds light on the stories she wants to tell about minority veterans in the United States.
It's a story mostly untold, and why we need filmmakers like Khaula more than ever before.
