Hisham Al-Asri: “For this film, it is a celebration of the historical power of women.”

“The Wonderful Girl” tells the story of Khadija, on the eve of her thirtieth birthday, who embarks on an epic journey in search of her own identity within society. She realizes the mistakes she has made, and realizes that her personal progress is closely linked to supporting the community. In this film, Hisham Al-Asri offers a powerful reflection on everyday struggles and the resilience needed to face an unforgiving world, brilliantly using black comedy as a powerful tool to expose society’s various ills.
