Soundos about own film: ‘If you don’t like it, you are tasteless and odorless’ | Movie

entertainment">“Now that I’m older, I’m starting to value it less and less. I’m very proud of the result,” she tells the ANP. And if you don’t like Meskina? “Then you are tasteless and odorless.”

entertainment">The comedy, which stars Maryam Hassouni, Nasrdin Dchar and Najib Amhali, among others, was an idea of ​​herself and her business partner and good friend Chafina ben Dahman. The story is about Leyla, a thirty-something who tries to find her own way despite all the expectations and obviousness that belong to the ideal image of family, love and work. During this quest she gets into quite a bit of trouble and ends up in hilarious and recognizable situations.

entertainment">“As a girl I dreamed of being in such a movie, but there weren’t any. So I’ll take matters into my own hands,” she says about her motivation to start as a screenwriter.

Bilal Wahib

entertainment">Soundos was also actively involved in the film’s casting, which she said focused on “good, fun, talented people.” Bilal Wahib also has a role. The 22-year-old artist was discredited in March when he asked an underage boy in a live Instagram session to show his genitals for a fee. After this incident, many parties dropped the actor and singer, but Meskina is probably the first time he appears again with new work. “It has never been a conversation about cutting it or anything,” Soundos said. Moreover, the recordings were finished long before the incident even happened. “The focus is also on the power women in the film.”

entertainment">Soundos really likes filmmaking. “Maker Soundos is born, say so.” She can’t think of a sequel yet. “First I want to celebrate this success.” She will do that at the festive premiere in Amsterdam on Sunday. “And then I just go home doing laundry. I will also remain a mother and partner.”
