Filmhuis Botanique Breda: Ladies' Lunch + Film: No Good Men

Filmhuis Botanique Breda is once again hosting a delightful Ladies' Lunch & Film. This time featuring the film: No Good Men. After the film, you will sit down for lunch at around 12.45 pm and enjoy a delicious glass of cava (or something else).

About the film:

Afghanistan, 2021, shortly before the Taliban return to power. Naru, the only female camera operator at Kabul’s most important television station, is trying to retain custody of her three-year-old son. Since leaving her unfaithful husband, she – like most Afghan women – has become convinced that there are no good men in her country.

That is why Naru is surprised when Qodrat, Kabul TV’s leading journalist, offers her a career opportunity. As they criss-cross the city together to report on the final days of freedom, sparks begin to fly between them and Naru starts to question her belief. Could there really be a good man somewhere after all?

With No Good Men, director, screenwriter and lead actress Shahrbanoo Sadat aims to show a different, more authentic image of Afghanistan, with humour and romance. No Good Men opened the most recent Berlin Film Festival.
