Hope this film is a cultural bridge between Kuwait and the rest of the world.

I'm so happy this movie got so much recognition at the Red Sea Festival and won the audience award. I hope this movie will get out internationally and bring more light to the Kuwaiti film industry.

An action movie with a comedic undertone about two best buddies from childhood, Salem and Asad, who stumble upon a gun shipment and try to seize this opportunity to get rich quickly. Not only does the film have some funny elements, but it also goes over very serious, real-life subjects.

This groundbreaking pic, which won Saudi Arabia's Red Sea Film Festival's audience award, is set entirely in the Arabian Gulf and provides a relatively realistic glimpse of Kuwait's present-day melting-pot of cultures and its underworld of gun-running mercenaries, gangs, and terrorists, plus the local rap scene.

Hope this film is a cultural bridge between Kuwait and the rest of the world.

I feel like our local movies were somewhat forgotten after their just release.

One more thing, there's in the awards incorrect info should correcting: to "Best Kuwait Film" instead of "Best Saudi Film"

At last, If you took the time to read all of this, thank you.
