Leila Asal (Honey Night) is an Egyptian comedy film that mines rich irony from an unexpected source. Nazik is a senior official at a family planning agency, and her husband Dr. Hussein is a practicing gynecologist — a couple whose entire professional lives revolve around reproductive health. Yet in a twist that catches everyone off guard, Nazik discovers she is pregnant well past the age of forty, at the same moment her newly married daughter is also expecting. Her young son Ahmed's panicked reaction — fearing that a new sibling will be drafted alongside him into military service — adds another layer of comic chaos, making for a warmly funny film about the plans that life refuses to follow.
