The critically acclaimed and award winning film is directed by Palestinian filmmaker Hany Abu Assad, who is known for his previous international award winning films "Rana’s Wedding" and "Ford Transit."

As you maybe aware, the higher the tickets sales, the longer the movie will play in theatres. Additionally, if ticket sales are strong, it will play in more theatres across the nation.
