Hasiba, is a 2008 Syrian movie, directed by Rimon Butros, and starring Sulaf Fawakherji, Talhat Hamdy, Salim Sabri. with a runtime of 122 minutes.
Hasiba is a Syrian drama film adapted from one of the most celebrated novels by Syrian literary figure Khairy Al-Zahabi. The film follows Hasiba, a woman trapped in a marriage characterised by cruelty and neglect, whose husband consistently fails to treat her with the dignity she deserves. Her solace — and her silent form of self-expression — is embroidery, a craft she has mastered and which becomes a metaphor for the intricate, painstaking work of enduring an unjust life. Drawing on Al-Zahabi's richly observed source material, Hasiba is a sensitive and culturally resonant portrait of a Syrian woman navigating suffering with quiet strength, making it a notable entry in Syrian cinema's exploration of female experience.
