'Aisha Can't Fly Away' Dazzles the Eye but Darkens the Soul
There are films that embrace you, and there are films that leave you uneasy long after the credits roll. 'Aisha Can't Fly Away' (2025) belongs to the latter.
The Egyptian filmmaker Morad Mostafa's first feature film is beautifully shot, taking an intimate approach to personal struggle, yet is merciless in what it reveals about human cruelty.
The camera lingers on the main character's face, showing despair taking form, and through gore, blood, sexual assault, and an exaggerated negative portrayal of Egyptians, it becomes difficult for the audience to bear.
'Aisha Can't Fly Away', an international co-production involving companies from Egypt, Tunisia, Qatar, Germany, Sudan, France, and Saudi Arabia, was written by Mostafa, Mohammad Abdulqader, and Sawsan Yusuf, with cinematography by Mostafa El Kashef.
