Abstract
This article delves into the experiences of Muslim women within the dynamic Malaysian screen industries, focusing on the concept of “production culture” formulated by John T. Caldwell. The study aims to understand how this production culture influences the professional, religious, and gendered identities of female Muslim production workers and to what extent religion serves as a coping mechanism. The research explores the gender disparities and religious ideologies that underpin the Malay community, emphasising the influence of cultural and religious norms. The findings elucidate the challenges Muslim women face in navigating their roles and obligations while highlighting the resilience and career achievements of Muslim women within the Malaysian screen industries. The article concludes with recommendations for future studies and policy development.
