The Documentary Podcast · Jordanian director Zain Duraie · 12 Jul 2026 podcast

I was very inspired by Titanic, actually.

I was very young when I saw it.

I wasn't really inspired by the story or any of that.

I was thinking about how did they build this ship and how did they do all of this?

And that was when I knew, okay, I'm so into this stuff.

And I started reading a lot of books about filmmaking in high school.

And then

I told my parents that I want to do this and I went to Canada for my film school degree.

Not really, no.

Not at that time, at least.

I was, and the performances as well.

I said, my gosh, how did this guy do all of this?

I'm not a big fan anymore, but like...

When I was young, it was such a fascinating film of how they built that ship and how they made it sink.

And I was thinking about all of this, is that how did they turn that ship upside down and how did they make all of this happen?

And that was what I was thinking about all the time when I was watching it.

And I was in grade four, like I was really young.

And then Gladiator came out and I started watching that.

Unfortunately, you grow up with just Hollywood films.

It takes you time to explore the other side of the world, which is like independent arthouse movies.
