City of life

City of life is the first Emirati movie and its talk about the life of some people from different nationality and they live or work in Dubai. There are three different stories in the movie but they have the same goal of achievement their dreams.
Let us now talk about the movie itself, I can’t deny that the movie was quite good in general. . There are three main characters in the film, an Emirati guy that tries to improve his life and rely on himself and find a suitable job. And an Indian man who work a taxi driver and he dream to be an actor or singer. Finally, A foreign woman who was work in one of the airlines companies, but she fell in love with a man who works in advertising companies. Her life changed after she met and fell in love and became pregnant, the man asked her to drop the child but she refused to drop the child, so her life become threatened Because the pregnancy without couples is illegal in the UAE. The film revolves around the people who live in our world and trying to achieve their dreams, but they face many difficulties in achieving their dreams. In the many attempts to improve their lives and achieve their dreams, they have lost more precious things to them. For example, the Emirati man has lost his best friend and the Indian driver were injured in her face, and foreign women became pregnant, but without a father.

I think the movie could be better if the director focus in the story instead of advertise for Dubai and the developments of Dubai. I think that this movie is a strong step for movie making but it needs to improved more. In general it was a good step to make more Emirati movie in the future.
