واجب
- Drama
After years abroad in Italy, Shadi returns to his native Nazareth. But this is no spectacular homecoming. He's back somewhat begrudgingly to honour his "wajib" (or duty) to hand out invitations to his sister's wedding with his father. The simmering tension between the two — who are often stuck in a car, more often than not in traffic — builds, exposing the sometimes-comic chasms that exist between men who live in different worlds but share an unshakable bond.
Wajib is a 2017 drama following Shadi, who returns to his native Nazareth from Italy to help his father distribute wedding invitations for his sister. Confined mostly to a car navigating traffic, the film explores the tensions and comedic rifts between a father and son from different worlds, bound by family duty and love.
