Bint Werdan (J'ai le Cafard), is a 2020 Kuwaiti movie, directed by Maysaa Almumin, and starring Enas El Fallal, Sedky Sakhr, Sandy Sawiris. with a runtime of 14 minutes.
Bint Werdan is an Egyptian short comedy film that follows a woman living with depression who finds herself utterly unable to connect with the upbeat, driven colleagues who surround her at work. In the unexpected privacy of the office bathroom, she encounters a dying cockroach — and what begins as a fleeting, absurd moment slowly develops into a strange and touching companionship. The film uses this unlikely relationship as a wry and melancholic metaphor for loneliness, alienation, and the desperate human need to find kinship anywhere it can be found. Blending dark comedy with genuine emotional depth, Bint Werdan is an offbeat and quietly affecting portrait of a woman searching for connection in all the wrong, and right, places.
