In the scorching desert landscape of Las Vegas, a woman's world unravels like the cards she shuffles in her role as a blackjack dealer. Firdaus' life is a fragmented dance between repetition and repressed anger, as she navigates the complexities of domestic violence and the search for a missing husband. This powerful independent drama, directed by Nina Menkes, is a nuanced portrayal of a damaged woman torn apart by the harsh realities of her world, yet finds moments of quiet strength in its spare, haunting narrative.
