Abouna is a deeply human drama from Chad directed by Mahamat-Saleh Haroun, following two brothers, Tamir and Amine, who wake one morning to find their father has abandoned the family without a word. The shock sends them into rebellion, until a chance moment watching a film makes them believe they glimpse their father on screen — and they steal the reel to search the frames for answers. Their mother Achta eventually sends them to a Koranic school, where the older brother's encounter with a deaf girl named Khalil opens an unexpected emotional chapter. A quietly devastating portrait of absence, longing, and the resilience of childhood.
