I have lost 2 hours of my life and my sanity

Under no circumstances should anyone subject themselves to this atrocious film. It is the worst film I have ever seen! There is essentially no intelligible plot, little dialogue and the picture quality just made it all that much worse! There is random music random, direction-less driving to someplace concerning the girl's family or history-it's not really clear. The beginning doesn't even have subtitles, so unless you know how to read Arabic, you will be lost from the very beginning. Under no circumstances should anyone watch this film, as you will go bald and make you go crazy. I didn't think I could hate a film this much and am amazed at myself for getting through it alive. If you must watch, fast forward, because half of it is senseless driving with no dialouge anyways.
