About This Movie
How Can It Be kind of drifts through the lives of Zainab and Arif, a couple grappling with their roles and aspirations in Brooklyn. It paints this intimate picture against the backdrop of their son Munna's existence, which adds a palpable tension. The pacing is leisurely, allowing you to feel the weight of Zainab's decision to step away from her sheltered life. There's an emotional authenticity to the performances, particularly in how they navigate love, sacrifice, and societal expectations. The short format works in its favor here, focusing on poignant themes without over-explaining. The practical effects are minimal, yet they serve the story well, grounding it in a tangible reality. It’s part of a larger UN project, which gives it an interesting context to explore global issues.
