Mohammed Hushki

Laila runs away from a life of disconnection and emptiness abroad, she wants her old world back in Amman. Yet 14 years changed everything. Unannounced and uninvited, her attempts to construct a new life turn out to be much harder than she thought.

On the eve of his most personal play, Khalid, a struggling theater director, seeks escape in drugs and solitude. His night is disrupted by a low-ranking police officer sent to write a report about the performance. What begins as routine spirals into a surreal night of hazy focus, uneasy conversation, and unexpected connection. As boundaries blur and confessions surface, the two men, each quietly battling his own collapse, discover in each other a reflection they didn't expect, and a mirror they can't ignore.
