Emirates' first female film producer tackles pedophilia - CNN.com

Nayla Al Khaja is breaking new ground in the United Arab Emirates.

She's the first female film producer in the kingdom.

And she's taking on regulators, censors -- and public opinion -- with her ground-breaking films delving into sensitive subjects like pedophilia and secret teen dating in the Muslim world.

Lately, Khaja, 31, has also been busy trying to become UAE's own Oprah, developing a proposal for a talk show tackling sensitive, Oprah-like subjects for Dubai One, the kingdom's main English-language television channel.

Khaja is founder of Dubai-based D-Seven Motion Pictures, previously known as Dessart Productions, producing commercial material, independent documentaries and films. The company was founded in 2002.

Besides her television work, Khaja is currently working on a short film about a young Emirati couple on honeymoon and a documentary on Dubai's ruling family.

Jumeirah Mosque Open Doors. Open Minds.

After the daily visit to the clinic we stopped at the Palm Strip mall opposite Jumeirah grand mosque. Even better views of the mosque and Burj Khalifa. You can hear the Adhan (call to prayer) from the mall. When it was time for prayers i just crossed the road. The masjid is even more beautiful inside. once inside we are all the same from the millionaires with their expensive 4 wheel drive hummers, landcruisers and BWM's to the dock workers. No difference all muslims attending the friday prayers. Jumeirah mosque is open for tours to all to increase awareness and understanding between various nationalities living and visiting the Emirates. The Open Doors.
