We have never been kids

About This Movie

We Have Never Been Kids is a raw exploration of a mother's struggle in contemporary Egypt. The film captures the weight of familial responsibility, especially as she navigates the turbulence of divorce. The pacing feels almost meditative, allowing us to sit with her emotions rather than rushing through them. You can feel the atmosphere shift as her circumstances evolve—it's not just about the chaos of motherhood but also about the quiet, sometimes painful acceptance of change. The performances are grounded, adding layers of authenticity. It’s the kind of documentary that lingers, prompting reflections on resilience and family dynamics in a world that feels increasingly unpredictable.
