Perhaps the first film to be set amongst the working-class black Saudi community of Riyadh, this Netflix social issues drama, chosen as the Kingdom’s international feature submission, is more fasci…
. It focuses on the barriers to a love match between the son of an executioner and the daughter of a wedding musician, whose society leaves them with more indebtedness to their families than free will.
The object of Dayel’s affections is fiery Shama , an aspiring clothing designer, and the daughter and niece of musicians. They’ve been meeting, albeit chastely and secretly, for almost a year. But in their traditional society, an executioner has much more status and respectability than a musician. Dayel’s uncle uses this as an excuse to forbid their marriage, while secretly scheming to get the young man launched in the family business and married to his own daughter as soon as possible.
Even though he lacks the means to marry her, the ever-jealous Dayel still makes a lot of demands on Shama. Despite knowing about her family crisis, he tells her that if she were to perform at a wedding, he would follow his uncle’s wishes, meaning that he could potentially be the one to execute Suror. For a relationship such as theirs, his uncle’s platitude rings true: “You can either fall in love or get married. Don’t be greedy.
On the plus side, overall, the film paints a picture of a warm, inter-connected community, where everyone knows everyone else’s business and many come together to support those in need.
