By drivingdoc1

Two young German filmmakers are looking for U.S. American Expats currently living in Qatar for our first feature documentary after film school. The subject is a humours look on globalization and how different people in different countries try to adapt to another culture.

 

Our candidate should:

 

-    be relatively new in Qatar (less then two years), but with the plan to live there for some time (we are not looking for tourists!)

-     be U.S. American

-    either just started taking driving lessons or is eager to get an Qatar licence out of personal or professional reasons as part of the documentary deals with traffic in Doha.

-    have enough time to take driving lessons.

-    be available for shooting and have time to meet us when we come for research between September and December (in each case 2-3 weeks)

-     have as much time as possible, which you might not have, if you have a fulltime job obligation.

-     be open to be filmed in their everyday life.

 

The driving lessons will be of course paid for as well as an appropriate remuneration for the “job” (negotiable)

 

The documentary is financed by German public broadcasters (ARTE and BR/ARD) and various funding bodies.

 

Here you can check out our production company in Berlin: www.kloosundco.de

We are looking forward to hear from you.

the wrong time to post this here, since most of the US expats have left for the summer and won't be back until mid-September.

 

Also, other than it being a teenager doing their driving lessons in Qatar (because they happen to live here as they come of age) - you won't find American young-adults needing to do driving lessons as US drivers licenses are automatically converted into Qatari licenses.
