Her film ‘Ashura (1987) is about Shi‘ites in southern Lebanon during the holiday of Ashura. She described her work about women in post-war Lebanon, Lebanon, Bits and Pieces (1992), as "the first film into which I really put a lot of myself. It deals with my relationship with my past and with a country I love and hate at the same time." She focused on the country again in Mother, Lebanon & Me (2009). She examined issues around hijabs and veils in Turkey in Women of Turkey: Between Islam and Secularism (2006). Her film Mon ami Imad et le taxi, about a taxi driver wandering the empty streets of civil war Beirut, began as an unfinished Super 8 film shot in 1985.
