Q

I wasn't sure what to expect when I first saw this film. In general I prefer indie films to other genres. I like a slow pace. I like to have something to think about and discuss after a film. I like to really get to know the characters and feel their emotions. I like beautiful visuals and soundtracks. Q gave me all of these things. The story is so deep and layered.

Hiba is so multifaceted and riveting as a main character. She shows such vulnerability and raw humanity in the film that only her own daughter, Jude Chehab, as director could have accessed. Ziad Chehab is stoic yet complex. Teta is eccentric and contradictory. Do yourself a favour and watch this film.
