"What are you currently working on?

KAN: I have a role in the short film, A Star in the Desert. The film, directed by Zachary Kerschberg, has an incredible script written by Iraqi American Yasmeen Turayhi. The film is about a young boy who faces tragedy on the eve of the first Gulf War in Baghdad. He embarks on a journey into the underworld where fiction and reality become intertwined. The film focuses on the plight of children in wartime. The other project I am working on is Messiah. It is a Netflix TV series about a man in the Middle East who claims to be the Messiah. My role appears in the last episode of Season One as an introduction to Season Two, where the story unfolds in relation to the current turmoil and political situation in the region."
