No Coaster Needed With Jacob Mccourt

On this episode of No Coaster Needed, I sat down with Nuha Elalem. She is a Windsor-based filmmaker and photographer who at 24 already has credits for The Card, The Tiger Hunter and others under her belt. On today’s show, we talk about her move from Libya to Canada at a young age, working as a Producer for the first time on The Card, going to Los Angeles, moving on to bigger projects like The Tiger Hunter and all of the anecdotes in between. If you want to follow Nuha's work, you can go to NuhaElalem.com or follow her on Instagram @PhotosbyNuha.
