Nader, is a new schoolteacher in a small, remote Saudi Arabian village. A secret artist, because all artistic expression has been banned in the country, he gets to know Norah, a young woman who rekindles his creativity and inspires him to paint again. At great risk, they form a delicate connection, with Nader introducing Norah to the world beyond her small community, prompting her to seek a place where she can freely express her artistic self. Special mention Un Certain Regard Cannes 2024.
