The Wedding

The Wedding (1978)

العرس

The film emerged from a 1976 play by the same ensemble. It explores the tragicomic lives of newlyweds from the petit-bourgeoisie, capturing their shattered existence with a blend of theatre and cinema. The Nouveau Théâtre members navigate a surreal landscape, suspended between nightmare and reality, with a hyper-presence of bodies accentuated by unchanging lighting.
