Abla, is a 2023 Jordanian movie, directed by Said Najmi, and starring Abla Fouad Abu Alhajj. with a runtime of 15 minutes.
Abla is a documentary portrait of a Palestinian refugee woman in her fifties living in Jordan — one of the most water-scarce countries on Earth. A compost expert and trainer by profession, Abla channels her expertise and resilience into an ambitious personal dream: to design a naturally regenerative piece of land that thrives without depleting the scarce resources around it. The film follows her as she works against the combined pressures of displacement, poverty, and environmental constraint, turning adversity into ingenuity. Abla is an inspiring and deeply human story about a woman who refuses to be defined by her circumstances, finding agency and purpose in the soil itself.
