Trivia The movie is based on two true stories - both Hend's experience with her father becoming sick and Patricia's experience with her mother over the years. Hend and Patricia came up with the idea one night while hanging out and making jokes. While they never shared a hospital room, they did share everything with each other during the time when their respective parents were sick. Hend and Patricia decided to play themselves because they didn't think they'd be able to find any actors within Doha that would have the unique chemistry they have together. See more »
