Wajib
Originally released in 2017. Wajib is a drama film. directed by Annemarie Jacir.
Starring Mohammad Bakri, Saleh Bakri, and Maria Zreik
Synopsis
After years abroad in Italy, Shadi returns to his native Nazareth. But this is no spectacular homecoming. He's back somewhat begrudgingly to honour his "wajib" (or duty) to hand out invitations to his sister's wedding with his father. The simmering tension between the two — who are often stuck in a car, more often than not in traffic — builds, exposing the sometimes-comic chasms that exist between men who live in different worlds but share an unshakable bond.
