This movie really doesn’t turn out to be what you think it will be, but still enjoyable

Relatively good performances, some interesting elements, but a very thin story and a half-baked ending.

I loved this story. It deals with a middle age crisis, international trade... I advise to watch it if you want to enter the world of trade.

Weird. There are likable performances but they're shadowed by an extremely poorly done and incoherent story with a truly terrible ending.

There was something that kept me watching till the end. The plot was kinda weird but if you are into Arab culture, it's a cute film.
