About This Movie

Object (2022) is a fascinating exploration of family dynamics through the lens of a seemingly simple event: the arrival of a baby doll into an Egyptian household. The film’s tone is a delicate balance of warmth and tension, capturing the nuances of traditional values. Pacing is measured, allowing the viewer to soak in the atmosphere of ritual and celebration, but there's an underlying current of unease that hints at deeper themes — attachment, identity, perhaps even loss. The practical effects on the doll are striking, lending it an unsettling realism. Performances are understated yet impactful, drawing you into this unique cultural perspective. For collectors, it stands out as a thought-provoking piece that challenges norms and reflects on the nature of family.
