Al Majhola [Arabic]
A young woman’s abandoned body is found in the desert and bears no identification. When the authorities go to investigate, they recruit police department receptionist Nawal (Mila Alzahrani) to help the otherwise all-male team discover details only a woman would notice. The intelligent and observant Nawal, a true-crime fan, possesses an unusual degree of knowledge when it comes to homicide investigations. She quietly takes matters into her own hands, going to different all-girls’ high schools to ask about missing students, only to find the administrators uncooperative, wanting no part in any story about supposedly “sinful” girls. Nawal eventually finds an ally in a teenager who thinks she might know who this Jane Doe is — but will she be able to convince the family to claim the body in time?
