Plot

Jude Chehab investigates her mother Hiba's adherence to a closed-off, all-female religious sect in Syria. Chehab examines how their mother-daughter relationship and the dynamics of the entire family were upended by this devotion.

An intimate portrayal of a quest for love and acceptance at any cost, Q depicts the influence of a secretive matriarchal religious order on filmmaker Jude Chehab's family and the unspoken ties and consequences of loyalty that have bonded her mother, grandmother, and herself to the mysterious organization. A love story of a different kind, Q is a multi-generational tale of the eternal search for meaning.
