As for Banat Faten, Yousra noted that the film tackles an unconventional, realistic topic, adding that some of the characters were inspired by true events. “There’s a real element we built the characters around, and I believe the story is out-of-the-box. Hopefully, it will be a pleasant surprise for the audience,” she said.
