    To some extent relatable but nothing new

    Basically the revolves around a Saudi family and how they treat their housemaid.

    As i said nothing new, good points to that were illustrated in a creative way tho.

    What I really like and would give 10/10

    Are the visuals! I really liked the cinematography work! The color palette the editing!

    Phenomenal!

    God Bless the writers for the subject of this film. The simplicity with which you approached a subject steeped in class difference and culture deserves huge accolades. Experimental cinematography. But the story is solid in character. Brilliance is written all over it.
