Saudi Arabia Scores First Cannes Choice Slot With Drama ‚norah’

The film’s titular character, played by Saudi newcomer Maria Bahrawi, is an illiterate orphaned young woman who lives in a distant village the place she faces an arranged marriage by which she will be trapped and has a necessity for self expression. She intersects with an artist named Nader, performed by Saudi star Yaqoub Alfarhan (“Rashash”), who has given up portray and moved to the village to be a schoolteacher. This chaste encounter unleashes in “Norah” a passion for art and, by extension, for a greater life away from the village.www.goyangtoto-slot.com/
