The Apple TV+ description of the film reads: “Nawal (Lubna Azabal), a dying Middle Eastern woman living in Montreal, leaves separate letters to her twin children to be read once she passes away. Jeanne (Mélissa Désormeaux-Poulin) is to deliver hers to the father the twins never knew and Simon (Maxim Gaudette) is to give his to the brother they never knew they had.”

“The siblings travel to the Middle East separately, where they each experience acts of brutality, uncover a startling family history and have revelations about themselves.” The film received an Academy Award nomination for Best Foreign Language Film and is listed on IMDb’s Top 250 Best Rated Films of All Time.
Incendies is based on lebanese writer Wajdi Mouawad’s play. Comments on IMDb have flooded the film with praise, with people branding it “incredible,” admitting that it left them “speechless” and that it has a “powerful, gripping plot with great direction and acting.”
