A road trip movie set in the Middle East, it is a comedy designed to interest both the Arab public and also a wider audience. The film tells of how , going from Abu Dhabi to Beirut and passing through Syria, barely traversing the boundaries of different countries, the landscape and the culture change so much it’s at times radical. Born to a mother from London and a father from Dubai, Alì grew up in the United Arab Emirates. Following his passion for cinema, he studied for a Master’s in Cinema Production at the prestigious London Film School. His films have been screened at festivals all over the world, to much acclaim from both critics and audiences.
