Aayesh / Iraq: War, Love, God and Madness
Aayesh
Abdullah Al-Eyaf
Short Film | Saudi Arabia | 2010 | 28 min.
Aayesh (starring Ibrahim Al-Hasawi) is a middle-aged man. He works as a morgue security guard in a big hospital. It is a mundane, lonely life - but then, one day, his daily routine abruptly changes for ten minutes. This brief interval serves to radically alter the course of Aayesh's life. 'Aayesh' won First Prize for Best Short Film at the 2010 Gulf Film Festival and perfectly demonstrates the prodigious talents of its Saudi-born director, Abdullah Al-Eyaf.
