In Between (2016)
10/10
Raw Glimpse of Islamic Culture
23 October 2022
It's amazing what a film can do without Hollywood intervention. In Between is a raw look at Islamic culture through a woman's perspective, as three roommates try to live their own lives and their lovers and families try to crush their spirits. The sexy smoker, the young veiled nun, and the brooding lesbian.

Similar to the film 'Or', this movie has a beautiful realistic pace and mood. Interspersed with good EDM. Scenes are shot in long stage play type shots. The whole world would like a true glimpse at Islamic culture right now, and this is Islam un-hijabed. The surprise is Islam mirroring a more watered down version of the same conflicts in the West.
