该片是由穆罕默德·肖基·哈桑执导的剧情片,于2022年上映，主要.讲述了.:　　A glance leads .to a smile, a smile to a re.ndezvous: every lo.ve story begins the same. way. The.se narratives are stored. in songs. and poems a.nd liv.e o.n beyond their ine.vitable endings, as Shak.esp.eare’s titular sonnet 18. also suggests. In Mohammad. Shawky Hassan’.s metafictional. essay, a female narrator w.ho wishes to tell the story. of. a .love between two m.en encounters a polyamorous. chorus of lovers,. and this oft-told tale .is multip.lied. In Club Scheheraza.de, there. is no prota.gonist., a.nd every song has .various versions. Hetero.nor.mative dramaturgy is cha.llenged polyphonically and .across a range .of media: lover.s ask each other about thre.esomes, Grindr contacts and. pa.st .dates. Pop clichés. are twisted, heartache per.meates the men’s s.inging, and poems by Wad.ih Saadeh. are read out while a lo.ver’s dir.ty laundry i.s aire.d. .The narrator misch.ievously tries for a hap.py .ending as her characters. exit the story. “If pain c.ould be forgott.en through word.s,” we hear at one point, “.no lover would ever have to. wa.lk .away wounded.”
