Maha Sidaoui is a screenwriter and writer with a sharp eye and a wry sense of humour, exploring the messy beauty of family life, belonging, and all the uncomfortable bits that come with not quite fitting in. Her stories balance tenderness and bite, finding comedy in discomfort and truth in contradiction. Drawing from lived experience, she writes characters who stumble, love, and collide their way toward connection. Whether on screen or the page, Maha’s work lingers in the in-between spaces — where identity is slippery, families are complicated, and being human is both absurd and deeply moving
