The Betrayal of Huda (Hany Abu-Assad, 2021, 87 minutes).
Reem, a young Palestinian mother married to a jealous man, goes to her friend Huda’s hair salon in Bethlehem. What should have been a routine visit turns into an unpleasant experience when Reem begins to pass out in her chair. Huda has set a trap for her: with the help of an accomplice, they take compromising photos of her to blackmail her into collaborating with the Israeli secret service, thus betraying her people.
