Curiously, that same year €” 2007 €” both Ray and Sheth (two of the most stunning-looking actresses around) starred in another forbidden lesbian love drama directed by Sarif, The World Unseen, set in Apartheid-plagued South Africa.
Interview with Shamim Sharif
By Oliviya Mayumi Moss, Chief Editor
March 2009 London
Description: I first met film director Shamim Sarif and her partner in business and life Hanan Kattan in Manchester (UK) this year for a charity screening of Sarif €™s second venture The World Unseen (2007). One week later, we met again at the 23rd London Lesbian & Gay Film Festival for the screening of Sarif €™s directorial debut I Can €™t Think Straight (2007). Finally, one sunny spring morning at an organic cafe in the heart of London, just days before the UK DVD release of both films, we met again for this interview.
