Can't wait for this depression to stop, it's been going on for far too long ...

 " Not easy to become an adult ... especially when you're already 34 years old.

Éléonore dreams of becoming a successful novelist, but for years a river manuscript, over 700 pages, has been refused by all publishers in the Place de Paris.

His family does not make it easy for him.

Her mother wants at all costs to find a husband for her and her sister crushes her with her contempt: “ 

Sometimes, you have to know how to admit failure.

If you had talent, it would be known now ...

 "

This thirty-something vampirized by her family, it is Nora Hamzawi who embodies her.

Filmed by her older brother Amro, she does wonders in the role of this pipelette, queen of blunders and self-sabotage.

A role ultimately not very far from the character that Nora Hamzawi composed for her own shows.

Éléonore

takes a modern look at a quirky young woman, in a world where princes are rarely charming, and princesses always a little lost.
