“Whoever guides someone to goodness will have a reward like the one who did it.”
— Prophet Muhammad ﷺ
This campaign will collect all funds raised by July 6, 2017 at 6:30 AM EDT
Haris would have been the youngest pilot to make the fastest circumnavigation of the globe. On July 22nd, 2014 their plane tragically crashed after lifting off from an airfield in the Pacific ocean. Haris's body was recovered. Babar's remain missing and the family continues to search for the remainder of the plane through deep sea dives.
Now is the time to share this inspiring story of two adventurers who lived life thinking outside of the box.
We are appealing to you to help us raise funds to produce a documentary film that tells the compelling story of these two inspiring individuals.
"There is a part of everyone that craves discovery and adventure and we have chosen to live out this craving. Breaking out of the routine of day to day life requires bravery in more than one form." - Haris Suleman
Haris would write during his journey: "A lot of people have expressed concern that the journey that my father and I have set out on is a risky venture. Some have even questioned why we would put ourselves through such a challenge. I simply ask them: Why did Edmund Hillary Climb Mt Everest? Why did Christopher Columbus discover America? Why did Marco Polo travel to China?" But the trip was more than just an adventure. It was for a purpose. Babar and Haris both expressed a deep passion for supporting education and they flew with the purpose of raising money and awareness about building schools in underserved areas of Pakistan.
Our team will focus the narrative arc of the documentary on the story of minorities in America focusing on this Pakistani-American family. We will highlight the unconventional adventure of Babar and Haris within the larger narrative of changing perceptions of communities and peoples eager to make a positive impact on the world.
Among the film's dynamic team is Hollywood actor Faran Tahir. Principle Pictures and TIM Media have joined together to follow the story through. The production and directors are award winning, experienced and forward thinking in seeing this film through. The team, along with close contact to the Suleman family, utilizes the best of equipment and techniques in the production of this documentary.
