Also my second film from Sudan. And it's not surprising to see another film through these cultures that focuses on the position of women, specifically around arranged marriages. Interesting display between traditions and modernity. The motives of the impending groom also gradually surfaced. The fact that his parents were not there and he only talked about his company's business model with the cotton plantations in Sudan gave away a lot. What would such a brushed-down type have to do with a local poor farmer's girl that he wouldn't find in Doha? So it's fascinating to also hear the matriarch of the village speak. Nice to see the Sudanese culture. Watch and experience!
