Hanging Gardens, is a 2022 Egyptian movie, directed by Ahmed Yassin Al Daradji, and starring wisam diaa, Jawad Al Shukrchi, Hussain Muhammad Jalil. with a runtime of 104 minutes.
Hanging Gardens is a bold Iraqi drama set amid the social wreckage of post-war Baghdad. Twelve-year-old As'ad, a rubbish picker, stumbles upon an American sex doll at the city's dumps and adopts it as his own. This simple act of childhood innocence propels him into dangerous territory — a crossfire between predatory commercialism and religious fundamentalism in a world where humanism has been silenced. The film is a quietly powerful portrait of a child who refuses to merely survive, choosing instead to truly live.
