Folaim - Companion dinner, is a 2015 Saudi movie, directed by Meshal Al-Jaser. with a runtime of 8 minutes.
Folaim - Companion Dinner is a short Saudi comedy that mines the cultural friction of a social evening gone awkwardly wrong. A Saudi husband accompanies his wife to a dinner with her old American friends, only to find himself marooned in an evening of mounting discomfort, miscommunication, and social landmines. The short film plays its premise with dry wit, capturing the gap between polite smiles and inner bewilderment with precision. A compact, sharply observed piece about the comedy of cross-cultural encounters and the quietly heroic effort of showing up somewhere you do not quite belong.
