Some betrayals you don't live to regret.
Directed by Hany Abu-Assad

A tense, politically charged thriller about coercion and betrayal where two women navigate impossible choices under surveillance and manipulation.
Based on real events, Huda’s Salon is a heart-racing, entertaining feminist thriller, where two women fight for their freedom. Reem, a young mother who is married to a jealous man, goes to Huda’s salon in Bethlehem for a haircut and an attentive ear. However, this ordinary visit turns sour after Huda puts Reem in a shameful situation, blackmails her to work for the secret service of the occupiers and betrays her people.
