Shaw Speaks (2008) Najma’s first short documentary to shot,edit,write and produce as a

Awards; focuses on a neighborhood in Washington D.C. that has and is experiencing
gentrification. This documentary takes a close look at Shaw, interviewing new and native
residents, compiling together the many changes Shaw has endured.

Art of Life (2009) an independent project written, directed and edited by Najma, was a personal tory about balancing work as an artist and life in regards to our personal relationships with our significant others. Sky, a passionate and emotional artist, is experiencing a cross roads in this journey called life. Through Sky’s journey as an artist she is coming to realize that maybe Manta, the man she has maintained a loving relationship with over the years, may not or could have never truly understood her as an artist.

Brothas -N- Arms (2010) This experimental documentary, a complete one woman production by Najma is a glimpse into the lives of two best friend artists and their journey in this world as they continue to work towards their goal of full time professional artists but remaining true to themselves all the while.
