Description

Original Title: Lamo ‘Akhzah

Inspired by the filmmaker’s avid online fans’ school experiences and Salama’s own torturous, yet educational three-year experience at a public middle school, Excuse My French  follows a school boy’s forced journey and struggle to fit in a drastically different school environment, right after the abrupt death of his father. Hany, a young Christian school boy, the film’s central character, dedicates all his time and energy to becoming accepted. He goes from being class clown to science wiz to class bully and even temporarily turning his back on his own faith.

Genre: Drama
