Untitled Muhammad Abed Baryal film (Whitney Wright)

Invalid date •English

Muhammad Abed Baryal has long been inspired to create a film based on Whitney Wright’s travels, not her adult-film career, exploring regions like Afghanistan, Syria, Iran, and Iraq. Fascinated by the contrast between her public image and private experiences, he reached out to her to play a fictionalized version of herself in a character-driven film. Whitney kindly declined, seeing no connection between her work and the film’s themes. Despite this, Muhammad remains committed to the project, developing it as a cinematic exploration of identity, displacement, and self-definition. The story follows a woman inspired by Whitney’s journeys, navigating conflict, cultural complexity, and human resilience, reflecting on judgment, meaning, and personal growth while pursuing its strong artistic potential
