Canadian writer and director Ruba Nadda made this lyrical and intelligent romantic film which is intoxicating. Juliette, a Canadian woman travels to Cairo to spend her vacation with her husband who works for the UN. When her husband can't get away from work, Juliette spends more time with an Egyptian friend of his and finds herself attracted to the city and its people. Nadda makes a sophisticated film for adults that's mature and refreshing. The magnificent Patricia Clarkson and versatile Alexander Siddiq deliver fine tuned and nuanced performances that's extraordinary along with the stunning city of Cairo that has never looked better on film.
