Wajib - Um convite de casamento

This is a movie that just drags on and on, uses a lot of improvised dialog and has a silly ending. It was a total waste of time, even for someone who is very familiar with the culture of the region. Must have been produced as some kind of tax break venture.

Beautiful peaceful movie showing daily life inside Nazareth Arabic city. The final scene with Athaan voice in the background reminds me of my home. Some people may find the movie slow, but it's the kind of movies you watch to relax.

After hearing about the movie, I finally watched it... But it was so painful to watch because it reached the point of becoming boring. The idea is good, but the story and treatment were unsuccessful. The movie's pace is so slow it contributes to boring the spectator. And the ending leaves us hanging on. And frankly I wanted more...

Well worth watching to normalise your view about Palestine and what life is like for Palestinian people when they are not at war with Israelis, which is what the news seems to focus upon in the main.

It operates on various levels and is well put together. Another good movie to undo the stereo-typing that tends to afflict the reporting of communities and countries around the world.

A stunning showcase of everyday life in Occupied Palestine, particularly Nazareth. The portrayal of father and son was so beautiful, showing the loving and complex relationships with families and children who leave their home countries. Although this film focuses on one particular father and son, I imagine it will be relatable for many. The other characters were wonderful too and you could really imagine the lives they lived. I loved the portrayal of community connections. This film was full of love and very delicate yet informative. It portrayed the unfair treatment that Palestinians have to go through daily, from a very human perspective. Intertwining the harsh realities of life for Palestinians in Israeli Occupation, with the love of community and portrayal of everyday life. Extremely well done.
