Whereas current public debates assign a great deal of attention to political Islam and explicit religious identification, Arab film production to a larger degree emphasizes religious practices in everyday life. In this chapter, movies with explicit as well as implicit representation of religion, and their contribution to the construction of Arab religious identities, will be examined.
