Рожденият ден на Лейла

Taglines

Overview

Абу е бивш съдия изпълнител, но договорът му в съда не е подновен, затова той трябва да се преквалифицира в таксиметров шофьор. В деня, в който дъщеря му ще навърши 7 години, неговата единствена задача е да се прибера по-рано вкъщи с торта и подарък за малката. Но никой не може да предвиди какво ще се случи на един таксиметров шофьор в объркания трафик на Рамалла. "Филмът на Машарауи е пиперлива черна комедия, в която прозира абсурдната ситуация в страната."

Laila's Birthday

Taglines

Overview

"At eight o'clock, it's Laila's birthday, okay?" Palestinian judge turned cab driver Abu Laila's wife reminds her husband. But on his young daughter's birthday, like any day, Abu faces a nerve-wracking shift in a Ramallah yellow cab armed only with an ex-jurist's misplaced pride, a father's loyalty, and a sticker reminding passengers that smoking and carrying AK-47s are prohibited. Rather than address politics or document holy war heroics and villainy, Laila's Birthday focuses on the toll that the unending Palestinian-Israeli conflict extracts from civilians clinging to both employment and a semblance of normal life amidst chaos and corruption, missile attacks and bursts of gunfire.

Il Compleanno di Laila

Taglines

Overview

"Alle otto è il compleanno di Laila, ok?" La moglie del giudice palestinese, diventato tassista, Abu Laila, ricorda al marito. Ma il giorno del compleanno della sua giovane figlia, come ogni giorno, Abu affronta un cambiamento snervante in un taxi giallo di Ramallah armato solo dell'orgoglio mal riposto di un ex giurista, della lealtà di un padre e di un adesivo che ricorda ai passeggeri che fumare e trasportare AK-47 è proibito. Piuttosto che affrontare la politica o documentare l'eroismo e la malvagità della guerra santa, Laila's Birthday si concentra sul bilancio che l'infinito conflitto israelo-palestinese strappa ai civili aggrappati sia al lavoro che a una parvenza di vita normale tra caos e corruzione, attacchi missilistici e raffiche di armi da fuoco.
