It's About to Rain drags you into the tight grip of Said Mahran's struggle. The pacing is deliberate, almost languid at times, which really sets the tone for the weight of his situation—fighting to stay in a country he calls home, yet feels like an outsider. There's an underlying tension throughout, not just from the bureaucratic hurdles he faces, but from the personal stakes involved. The performances feel raw and genuine, like they're living the story rather than just acting it out. The atmosphere is thick with melancholy and frustration, which makes you reflect on themes of identity and belonging. It's not flashy, but there's something distinctly powerful in its subtlety and the way it confronts immigration issues with a personal lens.
