This movie deals with religon, peer pressure, toxic masculinity, and the innocence of childhood in a great way, and the ending(no spoilers) is genius.
Simply majestic ... I didn't expect to see an Egyptian movie of that quality nowadays. In fact I lost hope of seeing one a long time ago .. The casting is amazing and reflects the great effort done by the amazing young director -Amr Salama- who created a wonderful movie and showed clearly the two different societies living in the same country , Egypt. The plot is creative and discussed the two most complicated problems in Egypt nowadays which are the Religious Persecution and the Sexual Harassment clearly thorough out the movie .. Though the reality is quite depressing yet the movie tried to focus our attention on it in a nice way ... The movie also shows the various degree of civilization and the mentality of the society in Egypt .. The main character which was Hani who was suffering from inability to fuse with the surroundings in the new school whatever he did in a way similar to the life of the director/writer as he mentioned before .. That movie has restored my faith in the Egyptian cinematography again and has given me hope that we may see a lot of Egyptian movies of the same quality soon ... My rating 9/10
You will laugh, cry, and feel every emotion in between.
Wonderfully entertaining. The acting was great as well, especially the boy who played Hang.

I liked the film, it was super artsy and enjoyable, except for a couple of bits that felt cheesy (even with the context of satire). The musical choices and soundtrack were honestly exhausting and repetitive and had a very generic vibe, like stock music (I was very surprised to find out it was original).
I really liked the art directing and the cinematography, but the editing fell a little short for me, because some scenes felt dull (maybe it was the lack of music or intentional), but they kinda drag and bored me.
The final sound mixing of the film made it very uncomfortable to watch on a big screen. The sound levels were off and the general quality was poor (I understand it's an indie production but still).
Overall it was a nice experience and the storytelling was decent.

And it address two issues at the same time... the two very different societies living in the same country... and the other the attempts of the Christians to reach Full acceptance amongst the society... in spite in my humble And from my observation the second issue has been improved dramatically since the revolution...
