Critics, as usual, delighted with another mediocre film
Beautiful and sad film ;(
Bayan Layla is very convincing in that role, torn between 2 worlds. I felt all her fears and shame and I hope that she found courage to chase her dreams ❤ The film showed very well the multi-layered nature of condemnations based on old customs and the definition of morality that derives from those customs. Often it is women who are the bearers of such customs, although they are probably themselves victims of the same value system - mother, future mother-in-law, friends... men are also victims of such way of thinking, so pride and shame bring out the worst instincts from them... I removed 1 star from my rating because of the nudity, which I think could have been avoided in some scenes in the film without losing the message. In fact, it seems to me that the 'undressing' of the main character is works against the message of the film, because in this way women and the female body are being sold once again - this time for the purpose of promoting the film. Specifically, I mean of the sex scenes, masturbation, etc. I think the last scene is very strong and perhaps the only justified nudity where Elaha figuratively and literally takes off her dirty clothes and puts them to wash...
