Biography
Oday Rasheed is an Iraqi-American film director, screenwriter and producer born June 17, 1973, in Baghdad. He made his feature debut with Underexposure (2005), a film shot in occupied Baghdad after the 2003 U.S. Invasion of Iraq—Variety described the production as 'guerilla filmmaking' taken to an extreme, and the project was billed as the first feature shot under those conditions. Rasheed immigrated to New York City in 2012 and has been based in Los Angeles since 2022, continuing to work as a director, screenwriter, and producer. As a screenwriter and filmmaker, he operates across documentary and narrative forms, often working in politically charged environments. Born under Gemini, Rasheed carries life-path 7, associated with introspection and investigative depth—a sensibility that threads through his choice to film in Baghdad when the infrastructure for cinema there was fragile. Rasheed's early work established him as a filmmaker willing to document complex geopolitical moments firsthand rather than from a distance.
