Trailer—NAGA

Naga

Amazing director! Such a fan- so artistic! So epic - can't wait for it to be on NETFLIX ahhhhh!!!!! December 7th couldn't come fast enough! What a roller coaster of a movie taking you through so many emotions the complex reality Sarah the protagonist faces which is a metaphor for so many. The cinematic colors and choice of shots really set the tone. I don't want to post any spoilers but it's a must watch film. So unique, so beautiful, so dramatic! So we'll done - anyone who says otherwise doesn't understand the artistic genius of Meshal Al Jaser-so excited for future films and what he'll produce next - never a dull moment.

A young woman, Sarah, ignores the nightly curfew set by her father and sets out for a party in a remote part of the desert. In addition to the expected arrogant and creepy men there is a bloodthirsty, rabid camel and other obstacles. The plot for this irreverent and quirky film is interesting, but the execution is awful. Naga is disjointed, shallow, and lacking in depth and substance. The unstable camera work, meant to give the film a spur of the moment appeal, is just annoying. Still, it is an intriguing glimpse into a world so much unlike the regular one I inhabit. World premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival.
