Genghis Blues

The idea for Genghis Blues came from Ralph Leighton, a former teacher, author, and explorer who believed the story of a blind blues musician's journey to the lost land of Tannu Tuva just had to be told in film. He was right.

Genghis Blues earned an Academy Award nomination, won the Sundance Audience Award, screened in theaters around the world, and continues to stream on major platforms today.

"Roko Belic not only created a film, he created a phenomenon. Every film by Belic moves me deeply." — Ralph Leighton

Happy

The idea for Happy came from Tom Shadyac, a Hollywood director of blockbuster comedies like "Ace Ventura," "Liar, Liar," "The Nutty Professor," and "Bruce Almighty." He had found success, but not happiness—and wanted to explore what really makes people happy.

The film became the landmark documentary at the heart of a worldwide movement promoting happiness and well-being. It screened in over 70 countries, became an "All-Time Bestseller" on iTunes, and its educational curriculum has been used in hundreds of schools and universities around the world.

"If you get a chance to work with Roko Belic, take it. You won’t find a better filmmaker and friend to collaborate with. Roko’s creativity is only surpassed by his heart and humanity." — Tom Shadyac

Trust Me

The idea for Trust Me came from Joe Phelps, a retired advertising executive. Inspired by a news article, he wanted someone to make a film about truth and trust—with guidance on how to consume information safely in today's world.

The film won the Walter Cronkite Award and was created primarily for the educational market, with a robust curriculum component that continues to help people navigate the digital age.

"Working with the Wadi Rum team is the best decision I ever made." — Joe Phelps

The Batmobile

The Batmobile was commissioned by Warner Bros. to be distributed on the Blu-Ray of "The Dark Knight Rises."

After studio executives saw the finished film—a feature documentary examining the history and impact of the iconic vehicle—they secured a deal with the CW network for broadcast as well.

Dreams: Cinema of the Subconscious

The idea for Dreams came from one of the producers of "Inception," who wanted to offer fans a deep dive into dream research—something more than a typical DVD extra.

The 44-minute documentary explores the mysterious world of dreams through research and interviews with leading dream scientists.
