Join us for an international movie night at the Language House! The students of the Arabic cluster will be showing "Assal Eswed" on May 5 at 3pm in 0107 St. Mary's Hall, in Arabic with English subtitles. After spending 20 years in the United States, Masry returns to Egypt with a romanticized image of his homeland. However, he quickly encounters the everyday realities that challenge his expectations. Through humorous and heartfelt moments, Assal Eswed explores themes of identity, belonging, cultural perception, and what it truly means to call a place “home.” The film offers a light yet meaningful reflection on navigating between two worlds. All are welcome!
