“In this film, I wanted to create a character who is as complex as the country he represents , Saqr, a Silly unconventional anti-hero with an unexpected heroism hidden beneath his rough exterior. I’ve always been fascinated by the tension between modernity and tradition in Saudi culture, and through Saqr’s journey, I aim to explore this dynamic with humor, action, and a touch of absurdity.
Saudi Foundation Day is an event rich with national pride, offers a backdrop for this story,
This film isn’t just about celebrating Saudi culture,it’s about breaking stereotypes, and showing that heroism can come in the most unexpected forms. Saqr’s story is a reminder that greatness doesn’t always come wrapped in tradition, but rather in the courage to rise above adversity with humor and heart.”
