I haven't been able to find the film online yet. Hopefully it's available soon.

Muslims around the world have also been producing a series of comedy satire videos mocking ISIS, but I think most weren't in English, as is the case for a lot of the resistance going on. I'm just north of Indonesia and south of Malaysia, and there's been a lot of outrage from Muslims in the region against what ISIS is doing, so it surprised me when I heard people criticise moderate Muslims for staying silent. They're not silent, they're really mad.

Yeah, I know. It's weird that people think that, but it's probably simply that that that sort of thing isn't reported on the news and therefore cannot possibly be real.
And also that they're scared of Muslims and don't dare speaking to any or knowing any in their daily lives. Etc.
