"Inshallah A Son", the first Jordanian film in competition at the Critics' Week of the Cannes Film Festival 2023, follows Nawal in her struggle for inheritance and her daughter. The film is due in cinemas on March 6, 2024.

In"Inchallah un fils", we plunge into the heart of contemporary Jordan through the prism of Nawal, a 30-year-old widow played by Mouna Hawa. Following the unexpected death of her husband, Nawal is faced with the relentless struggle to secure her inheritance, a quest that proves all the more crucial as it is the key to her survival as well as that of her daughter and their home. The film finely explores family and social dynamics in a context where the birth of a son could have offered a completely different trajectory to this bereaved family.

Directed byAmjad Al Rasheed, this poignant work has made its mark on the history of Jordanian cinema, becoming the first film from this country to compete in the Critics' Week at the prestigious Cannes Film Festival in 2023. This distinction underlines not only the film's importance in the international cinematic panorama, but also the relevance of the themes it tackles.

The cast, led by Mouna Hawa, revealed to audiences through her role in"Bar Bahar" ("Between Two Worlds"), Seleena Rababah, and Haitham Omari, known for his performances in several regional productions, seems to bring remarkable emotional depth to this story. Their performances are renowned for highlighting the personal and collective issues facing their characters, in a society where traditions and inherited laws weigh heavily on individual destinies.

"Inchallah un fils" holds up a mirror to our society, boldly questioning notions of heritage, family and gender. The actors' performances, coupled with Al Rasheed's deft direction, make this a must-see film that will undoubtedly continue to be talked about long after its international debut at Cannes.
