A small video (1:37) focusing on the relationship between Wadjda and her mom.
My fav part is the beginning (it´s a very short fanvid so maybe this is not so good? like i just got lazy and gave up on the rest? but it feels on point with what i want to say and i tried to vid to the rest but the lyrics there take a little turn that i felt don´t fit that well and what else i tried seemed to distract from the intention.)
I like how i kept in the canon/source material sound of Wadjas steps toward her mother, audio has a way of grounding things? make them feel more real?
The beginning paralleing her moms red dress (that she wants to win back her husband so he won´t marry another woman who can give him the son she can´t give him) and her bike - because the happy end is her mom giving up on it ( on her husband who refuse to take responsiblity for his decision blaming it on his family but also refusing to do anything against it) to buy her daughter the bike.   
I wanted to have her father init as he is a part of their family,relationship even if largly an absent one, so here he hugs her and is very proud of her winning but he is to busy with his new wedding to listen to her when he ask her why she is crying. 

Wadjda - keep the record on play

Wadjda and her mom keep on playing, keep on living.
This was one of my first videos, i made it back in febuary, its short (1: 39).
The band was a big hit when i was in elementary school - so i associate them with (my) childhood that and the general sound of it fitted well to this movie, with the seemingly very basic story (girl wants a bike, enters a competion to win money for that, doesn´t get the money but finds out her mom rewards her efforts with the bike) and yes it is a simple story but the way it handles it characters and their relationship really make it worth a watch if you haven´t seen it yet.

i like the part before the lyrics start, the crackling noise and then the woosh, music loading up to be heard with her gaze fixated on the bike passing and running after it (to the woosh).
The scene where she pins her name to the family tree where only the male names are noted is a wonderful scene and i am happy with how i put it in: "But I hit back/I stopped being a slumdog long ago" "Get those twentyfour inch rims on rickshaws" with her name proudly on display.
