The CinePearl Take

Director Mohamed Diab balances intimate character moments with broader societal critique, never losing narrative momentum. Yara Goubran delivers a hauntingly nuanced performance that anchors the film’s emotional core. The pacing is deliberately steady, allowing each vignette to breathe while building an inexorable sense of urgency. Ultimately, the film’s unflinching honesty about a pervasive problem makes it both unsettling and essential viewing.
