Interesting facts

Inch'Allah is a Canadian drama film, released in 2012. Written and directed by Anaïs Barbeau-Lavalette, the film stars Evelyne Brochu as Chloé, a Canadian medical doctor with the Red Crescent. Splitting her time between her clinic in Ramallah, West Bank and Jerusalem, Chloé finds her loyalties torn as she witnesses the effects of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict on her friends, colleagues and patients on both sides of the border. At the 1st Canadian Screen Awards, Inch'Allah received five nominations, including Best Motion Picture.

Production

Director Anaïs Barbeau-Lavalette submitted the screenplay to micro_scope producers Kim McCraw and Luc Déry, with McCraw saying she and Dery were initially reluctant to take on a second complicated project in the Middle East after Incendies (2010), but the issue in the screenplay was important enough that it should not be ignored. McCraw personally went to Jordan to work on the film.
