The Sheikh's Batmobile

In 2005, Al Shamshoon—an Arabized version of The Simpsons—debuted on an Egyptian satellite station. Pop-culture commentator Richard Poplak was so intrigued that he set off to uncover other examples of North American taste translated and reinterpreted for a Muslim audience. The result of this journey is a fast-paced and culturally savvy look at what happens to North American pop-culture when it is consumed and reinterpreted in the Muslim world—and what that says about how we are viewed by the hundreds of millions of young Muslims.
