Let me talk about the shortcomings of the movie first, it lies in the makeup of two important actors Nawal (female lead) and Nihad/Abu Tariq. The time span of these two people's appearances is actually very large, but the appearance of them has not changed much, resulting in serious dramas.
The heroine Nawal was born in 1949 (according to the epitaph)
Nihad was born and sent to the orphanage in 1970, when she was 21 years old
The assassination of the leader of the Christian militia took place in the late 1970s, and she spent more than 10 years in prison.
According to the memories of Muslim warlords, Nihad became a sniper, then ran away, and was then captured during the "enemy invasion". Note that the enemy here refers to the Israeli invasion in 1982. Nihad was only 12 years old at that time! ! ! Then he became the prison guard Abu Tariq.
It was probably in the mid to late 1980s when Abu Tariq and Nawal met. Because the elder sister of the twins was a university assistant in 2009 and should be in her 20s. Assuming she was only 23 years old at this time, she was born in 1986. So when Abu Tariq raped Nawal, he was not more than 16 years old? ? ? ? Do you think this looks like a teenager in his 10s?
Nawal was in her 30s at this time, but she seemed to be like this when she first appeared at the age of 20.
In 2009, the twins finally sent the letter to Abu Tariq (returned to the name Nihad). By this time, he should be 39 years old, and his appearance is basically the same as when he was 16 years old. Both mother and son have freezing age stunts.
The narrative rhythm of the whole movie is very good, but the appearance of the actors is outrageous. Don’t you play a role that spans more than 20 years without much makeup?
