Nezouh

Enchanting feminist coming-of-age drama, from award winning Syrian director Soudade Kaadan.

Teenager Zeina and her family are the last to stay in their besieged hometown of Damascus, in Syria. When a missile rips a giant hole in their home, it unexpectedly leads Zeina to an unimaginable world of possibility. Delicately weaving lightness and magical realism among heart-breaking desolation, Soudade Kaadan’s Venice Film Festival award-winner offers a powerful and moving perspective on the Syrian conflict.

Nezouh was made with the support of the BFI, awarding National Lottery funding.
