The Gravedigger's Wife

I had the privilege of watching the first screening of this beautiful film in Hargeisa and I had never experienced this much emotion watching a Somali film.

Even though the nature of the film was very sad, there was still a lot of wit and moments I found funny which created a dynamic experience that deeply resonated with me and made me connect even more with the characters. This definitely made the film more memorable to me.

I hope I see similar works like this by Somalis in the future, hopefully we can see something about the experience of young adults in Somalia which is something I am sure would be loved widely loved and also I am looking forward to future works of Khadar a brilliant director and human.
