Program Description

Event Details

Nadia and Saeed meet as unrest roils the city, turning familiar streets into a patchwork of checkpoints and bomb blasts. They begin to hear whispers about doors—doors that can whisk people far away, if perilously and for a price. As the violence escalates, they decide that they no longer have a choice. Leaving their homeland and their old lives behind, they find a door and step through…


Exit West follows two young lovers as they emerge into an alien and uncertain future, struggling to hold on to each other, to their past, to the very sense of who they are.
