Pickled (بيكلد)
Sammy and Yousif sit across from each other at a kitchen table adorned with a damask cloth. Battling the tumultuous waves of their mother’s sudden passing, they embark on an exhilarating quest to unravel the mystery behind their unexpected inheritance: a single jar of pickles.
The brother’s chance to dill with the unconventional bequest drives them to unravel hidden truths about their family, themselves, and the memories they thought they shared.
