SYNOPSIS

\"\'Fairuz\' is a short film centred around Yussef, a man in his mid 60s
who struggles with the recent loss of his wife and the loneliness that
comes with growing older. We start the film on the wedding day of his
only child, Fairuz, where to his surprise it is revealed that his
daughter and her new husband are moving abroad. Shocked and unable to
accept this separation, he selfishly flees the wedding.

In his desperation, running high on adrenaline, he crashes his car in
an isolated farmers field. Michael, the farmer, tries to help Yussef
but their mutual sense of pride and stubbornness initially hinders
them from connecting. When Yussef is confronted with Michaels
Alzheimer\'s stricken wife, Julia, he is forced to gain some
perspective and recognises himself in Michael and his situation. The
two men find a common language, and through their meeting Yussef
learns to accept the changes in his life.\"
