First of all I was blown away by the quality of the production: the cinematography, directing, acting and sound design and music were all too tier. I went in not expecting much, but to my surprise the film really delivered. The story was interesting, the acting engaging and the twist at the end was the cherry on top. For those who are saying it was boring they are using films like the new exorcists to compare it with. This is an intelligent film that doesn't rely on jump scares. I find people who are rating this anything below 5 bitter, they are not supportive of independent cinema, and this is definitely a step up from the movies we usually see from this region in terms of the quality of production. Don't let such reviews take you away. Go, watch and form your own opinions and remember to always support female filmmakers in the region.

This exceptional thriller is a suspense masterclass from start to finish. The narrative, with its intricate plot twists and suspenseful storytelling, kept me hooked and on the edge of my seat. The characters are portrayed with depth, each layer revealing hidden complexities. Tension fills every scene, designed to keep viewers guessing. The cinematography brilliantly captures the psychological rollercoaster with atmospheric visuals and dynamic camera work.

In conclusion, this psychological thriller is a cinematic gem that demands immediate attention. It's a must-watch for those who appreciate a well-crafted story, exceptional performances, and an immersive experience that lingers long after the credits roll. An edge-of-your-seat journey into the complexities of the human mind, this film undoubtedly sets a high standard for the genre.

Yes the story is not original and we seen it many times. But i enjoyed the movie. It was a good attempt and a pleasant surprise. I did not get bored while watching. It kept me hooked to know what will happen next, and i guess this is the most important thing to enjoy a movie.

The acting was good from all specially the kid. The mother's acting was not upto to the mark for me, she could've shown more emotions throughout the bad journey of her son, instead i felt that she was interested more to know the Dr in the middle of all this which is kind unnecessary! This part could've been better.

Ending was good, horror element could be better at the end, Director could've add a bit of more touch in horror blending with religious aspect that could have made the work even better and more gripping.

Overall its a nice work in term of directing and cinematography, the efforts shows, and i wish to see more progress in the upcoming projects in this genre.

I had the pleasure of watching the movien at the Red sea mall cinemas during the RSFF. I went in not expecting much but to my surprise, it exceeded my expectations. The storyline is very interesting, its relatable to the middle eastern culture. I especially liked how it succeeded to make a point about mental health without offending our Arab culture and religious believes. Apart from that, I really enjoyed some of the more laid back scenes. Going in, I didnt expect to be laughing in a horror film but the film did include some humorous lines that were just right. I encourage you to watch this movie with an open mind.

I was pleasantly surprised, since I am not usually one to watch thrillers or horrors - the scaredy cat that I am, I really enjoyed this. It was good to see the two different perspectives and cultural clashes. Being someone of mixed background I can really relate to the two sides.

The young boy is definitely a rising star, he played the character really well, I understand from what I have read that this is his first film, and he did it really well. Looking forward to seeing him in more to come. I really like the way it was shot, the elements of humour and the connection to the UAE which we don't often see in this light.

Super movie and very well done.
