When Adil El Arbi (@adilelarbi) started film school, he knew right away he didn’t quite fit in. The son of Moroccan market vendors in Belgium, attending on a government scholarship, he felt adrift in the sea of white middle-class faces. It was not only his roots that were different but his cinematic heroes. The qualities that set El Arbi—one of 10 young trailblazers who TIME has chosen as this year's Next Generation Leaders—apart eventually led to his success. He and fellow student Bilall Fallah started making movies that drew on their experiences growing up but with high-energy entertainment value and emotional storytelling. The directing pair attracted international atten­tion in 2015 with their second feature-length film, 'Black,' a West Side Story–type gangland tale that was filmed and set in Molenbeek, the Brussels neighborhood that has since become synonymous with Islamic terrorism. Many of the men who carried out the Paris terrorist attacks in 2015 lived there, but El Arbi was determined to show a different side of the residents. The cast, made up of locals, “shows how many talented people are there, that a big generation of people want to do something positive,” he says. 'Black' made a splash at the Toronto International Film Festival in 2015, and Hollywood came calling. Asked what kind of films they wanted to make, El Arbi, now 29, and Fallah confessed their ambition to make Hollywood block­busters. In 2016, they got the call to direct 'Beverly Hills Cop 4.' It might seem a world away from the streets of Molenbeek, but El Arbi says the new film will be a return to the original’s grittier feel. It’s partly set in Detroit, a “rough, hard world … that is also a bit like Brussels." Photograph by @nickballon for TIME
