The CinePearl Take
Lead actress Aisha Al‑Khalidi (as Farha) delivers a performance that is both fragile and fierce, anchoring the film’s emotional core. Director Darin Sallam balances quiet, observational moments with sudden bursts of violence, keeping the pacing taut without sacrificing nuance. The film’s central theme—loss of innocence amid forced displacement—resonates long after the credits roll, making it a powerful entry in contemporary historical drama.
