Journey into Europe



Akbar Ahmed

Published on Feb 23, 2017

Ambassador Akbar Ahmed, a world-renowned anthropologist, Islamic scholar, and filmmaker, explores Islam in Europe and the place of Islam in European history and civilization in this unprecedented film.

Shot across the continent in countries such as Germany, the U.K., France, Spain, and Bosnia-Herzegovina, Journey into Europe features some of Europe’s most prominent figures -- presidents and prime ministers, archbishops, chief rabbis, grand muftis, heads of right-wing parties -- and everyday Europeans from a variety of backgrounds. Startling, challenging, and emotionally powerful, the film’s themes of identity and acceptance are critically relevant to our world today.

“It is hard to exaggerate the importance of this work.” –Dr. Rowan Williams, Former Archbishop of Canterbury and Master of Magdalene College, University of Cambridge
