Selma Chalabi Biography

Selma Chalabi is a British filmmaker and journalist. She was born in the United Kingdom to an Iraqi father and English mother, and was raised in Winchester.

Career

She has produced numerous short films about her father's homeland, in a bid to not only discover more of her Arabic roots but to also address media stereotypes towards Iraqis. She worked with and received support from Valley and Vale Community Arts when directing and producing Land Of My Father. Stories collected by Chalabi when interviewing her family for Land Of My Father inspired her to create Blue Eyes, a short film about her Iraqi grandmother. Blue Eyes was made as part of the BBC Wales "Capture Wales" project, and became recipient of the Round 2 Award winner of the Commedia Millennium Awards.

She is currently a correspondent for BBC Wales.
