Losing Our Sons
Losing Our Sons (2012)

Genres Documentary
Themes Films about religion, Documentary films about religion, Films about Islam

Two fathers have lost their sons to a radical Islamist movement whose growth is enabled by naïve and misguided political correctness, willful ignorance, and simple cowardice. Carlos Bledsoe, born and raised in an African American Baptist family, firebombed a rabbi's house and then killed Pvt. Andy Long outside an Army recruiting office in Little Rock, Arkansas. Carlos becomes a jihadist through his connections to radical mosques and Imams in Nashville, as part of a problem that is being ignored—or facilitated—by local civic and religious leaders and the media; whose politically correct views blind Americans to a truth that few dare engage.

During the 12th and 15th centuries, in Muslim Spain, many science books were written. When Muslims left Spain, many took their manuscripts with them. Today, one can find them spread in particular libraries, all along the caravan route through Morocco, Mauritania and Mali. From Toledo to Timbuktu, this documentary follows their traces. Its protagonist, Ismael Diadié Haidara, owner of the Andalus Library of Timbuktu, has spent years trying to retrieve his family's manuscripts and with them, his own Al Andalus past.
