So sad, so happy, so vibrant !!!!!

I haven't seen anything like it in any Arab films. It's a must for all and especially for women of Arab extraction.

@06pheonix You obviously haven't been to Libnan then, its so open minded there probably more than America. There isn't ANY porn in here do you know what porn is? It involves people getting naked and having sex so please go get a dictionary and there is a Lesbo so what? meen inta lat 7asib? This is just a film of women in a salon and their lives nothing indecent.

@06pheonix I have seen this movie, and was touched by the way Nadine sent the message. This is pure Art, and for that all my respect go to Nadine Labaki, but unfortunately not everyone can understand it. Nadine ma bahdalitna bil 3aks Nadine willi mitl Nadine byerfa3o rasna. I don't know where you live, but I will tell, if you live in Lebanon, you are looking but not seeing the truth in Lebanon.
