Hawwa wal Qerd (Eve and the Monkey) is an Egyptian romantic comedy centered on Nadia, a woman consumed by pathological jealousy toward her husband. When she discovers he is having an affair with a dancer, the revelation sends her into a psychological crisis that lands her in the office of a psychiatrist who diagnoses her with dissociative personality disorder. Rather than using the diagnosis as a path to healing, Nadia weaponizes it — adopting an alter ego that allows her to reconnect with her former fiancé while keeping her husband at arm's length. The film blends comedy with the theatrics of marital warfare, exploring how pride and deception complicate even the most intimate relationships.
