Kasr al Hob: The Movie

As I promised you yesterday, I was going to put up a summary of the Asmali Konan: Hayat movie. This explains the foggy ending of the series and how they left the audience hanging at Maram and Husam's departure. Well let us begin. But please know that I did not understand all of the events that were happening in the movie.

In the beginning, the movie starts out with a vivid dream. The only problem is, I don't know who's dreaming it. Twisted events occur in this dream, Husam is hitting Maram, after Maram sees that Najla's son is also the son of Husam. Then Maram goes into a deep sleep and it was all so vivid, and surreal. Those are the best words to describe it.

After that, Maram is seen in the hospital, with her head all shaved and in a coma. The doctors see that the cancer is actually declining while she is in the coma, which is a source of happiness for the staff. Husam, however, is nowhere to be seen. Maram seems to be shot and her husband is suspected of this, because of his disappearance.

When that is explained, Husam is shown to be in a homeless gathering, his hair very long and dirty, and an overall different look than your used to. He's going crazy, shouting, and yelling and laughing. He seems like he doesn't remember anything at all of his past life.

After intensive searching and investigating in Husam's disappearance, they are able to find him. And what I mean by they is Alia Beik and Bakir, who were visiting Maram at the time. Just as he seemed, Husam doesn't know anyone and doesn't remember anything. So a psychologist helps him. But when he starts remembering, everything is backward. Maram is with Yamen, and Najla is Husam's wife. He hates Maram with all his heart for some reason I did not understand.

He starts imagining or actually living in the past of when they first came to New York for treatment. He remembers how much he loved Maram, and they're relationship during that short time. And finally he remembers that fateful night and the reason why Maram is in a coma. They were walking together late at night, when about three robbers approached them and threatened Husam with a gun, while they were hurting Maram. Husam tried to surprise the robber and take the gun away from him however it ends up firing at Manar. The robbers run and Maram collapses on the ground. Husam panics and goes out of his mind while he walks away. And that leads us to the present.

Shortly after, in the present, Maram wakes up from her coma and her cancer has declined to a point where it doesn't exist anymore. She is reunited with Husam, and there the movie ends!

So what do you think of it? I thought that they should have the ending of when Maram is reunited with the whole family in Turkey and her daughter, Hayat especially.
