Review of Fiasco

Fiasco (I) (2009)
9/10
Fiasco For Sure
30 September 2009
Warning: Spoilers
In this action packed short film written and directed by main character, Nadia Hamzeh, there is so much going on it is possible to get lost in the 17 minutes. While dealing with so many issues in such a short period of time, Hamzeh does a wonderful job of pulling them all together at the end of the film with the ultimate "uh oh". Understanding the first few minutes of the film may be somewhat confusing, but as the film ensues, so does the hilarity of Noura's situation. The tables turn, then turn again, ultimately making the viewer crack a smile or two. In such a short period of time, I have never seen so many different conflicts arise so quickly in one apartment. My head began to spin, as does Noura's at one point, until it all suddenly makes sense... sort of. 9 out of 10 in my book and a great short film with quite a lot going on.
