MANDOOB - ALFILM Arab Film Festival Berlin
Das sagt der/die Veranstalter:in:
Fiction, director: Ali Kalthami, Saudi Arabia, 2023, 112 Min., Arab. with En. ST
A dark comedy drama unfolding in the heart of Riyadh, where desperation and opportunity collide. Fahad (Mohammed Aldokhei) is racing against time to save his ailing father. As his world crumbles under the weight of financial burden and societal indifference, Fahad’s life takes an unexpected turn when he is forced to make ends meet as a humble delivery mandoob (courier). However, a chance encounter uncovers a dark underbelly of the city – one thriving on illegal dealings and illicit activities. Thrusted into the vestibules of the rapidly growing metropole, Fahad is confronted with a dangerous proposition that could solve all his monetary woes. Yet, this opportunity comes at a great cost – he must risk everything he holds dear, including his principles and the fragile sanity he clings to. Mandoob premiered at the Toronto Film Festival in the Discovery Section.
