Life and career
Suleiman lived in New York City, where he co-directed Introduction to an Argument (1990) and directed Homage by Assassination (1990), which received many awards.
Introduction to the End of an Argument, an experimental video film directed by Jayce Salloum, challenged the portrayal of Arabs in Western media and its impact on foreign policy by combining clips from Hollywood films, television broadcasts, and cartoons with live scenes (shot by Salloum) from the West Bank and Gaza.
The Assassination of the 1991 Gulf War is represented in the juxtaposition of multilayered personal anecdotes and identity. Ella Shohat and Robert Stam's "cultural disembodiment" is depicted in "multiple failures of communication" that reveal the inconsistencies of a "diasporic subject."": 24

Suleiman's film, The Arab Dream (Al Hilm Al-Arabi), delves into identity issues, claiming that: "I don't have a homeland to say I live in exile..." "I live in postmortem; daily life, not death." In 1997, Suleiman produced War and Peace in Vesoul, which was also a short film.
Suleiman released the 15-minute short film "Cyber Palestine" in 2000, following a modern-day Mary and Joseph as they attempt to cross from Gaza to Bethlehem. Suleiman, 78-79, was a member of the Cannes Film Festival's nine-person jury.
