The Roses, is a 2021 Egyptian movie, directed by Amina Abdel-meguid, and starring Habiba Khalifa, Huda Hassan. with a runtime of 17 minutes.
The Roses is an Egyptian drama short film following Sarah on her sixteenth birthday, a milestone that brings an unexpected emotional turn when she receives flowers from her mother — beautiful, but not the ones she has always dreamed of. Spurred by a quiet but deep longing, Sarah ventures into the historic quarters of Cairo in search of a flower nursery where she hopes to find the specific roses she has desired her whole life. The film uses this deceptively simple quest to explore themes of self-expression, the disconnect between what we receive and what we truly want, and the way a single day can mark the beginning of something new.
