Keif al hal?

Screening at Stockholm's 17 th annual International Film Festival is Saudi Arabia's first feature film, Keif al hal? A comedy-drama shot in Dubai.

"The ultra-conservative Khaled wants his sister Sahar to marry his righteous and God-fearing friend Waddah. Sahar on the other hand has no plans what so ever to quit her job as a journalist and seems much more interested in Sultan, a director of experimental theatre and also a close friend of the family."
-David Fukamachi Regnfors

Hala samawel! Yes it is very likely they will show it at the DIFF, because it will be screened all over the Arab world...apart from ironically enough, Saudi Arabia itself where it is banned. lol

Glad you enjoy the music.
