A lovely little comedy , I may have been the only one in the cinema who needed to read the subtitles but glad I got to see this creation by accomplished Egyptian director Peter Mimi.

Great cast and art direction - it had a feeling of Bollywood about it to me certainly in the way it had music and dance and understated romantic undertones

Love the way Odeon Cinemas embrace world cinema - got to see this in a packed family auditorium on Friday in Cardiff.

The story was good with a defined beginning middle and end with a happy conclusion - a good film for all the family with lots of smiles , ups and downs and plenty of laughs

Worth a watch
