"Is this the falcon you told me about?" Check out this festival promo trailer for an indie coming-of-age film titled The Falconer, which is premiering soon at the Heartland Film Festival. No release has been set, but this looks like it's one to keep an eye out for. This is apparently the first feature ever to be shot entirely in Oman. The Falconer is about two best friends, Tariq, the Lebanese-born son of a poor beekeeper, and Cai, a Westerner. The inseparable pair work together at a ramshackle zoo in Oman. Their care-free friendship is challenged when Tariq promises to help his sister, Alia, escape from an abusive marriage. Cai's worldview and love for animals is pitted against Tariq's daring plan to steal animals from the zoo and sell them to save Alia. They are forced to wrestle with morally complex choices that expose the vast distance between their worlds. Starring Rami Zahar, Rupert Fennessy, Noor Al-Huda, & Khamis Al-Rawahi. Watch below. ›››
