In 2013, a women’s volleyball team from a Syrian forgotten village aspired to win the national republic cup in search of joy and victory.
The story of the team and the village is what the “Waiting for Autumn” film, which won the Cairo International Film Festival’s best award for this year, talks about.
The film, directed by Jod Sa’eed and produced by the General Cinema Institute in cooperation with the Adam Production Company, was officially opened on Thursday evening at Cinema City in Damascus.
It reflects the ability of Syrian actor to work underany circumstances, according to the renowned Syrian actress Solaf Fawakherji.
Well over 15 actors and actress perform in the long film’s story based on Syria’s deep-rooted culture.
