Write a short summary of what happens in the film

Millennials in the region are mothers to babies and toddlers — the most challenging of ages indeed, one that demands constant attention. And after spending 24 hours with their little ones, young moms sometimes find themselves dreaming about some alone time. This is why this original Mother's Day song portrays the daily odyssey of a young mom that never gets a break from her child to read a book, eat a "not-already-half-eaten" bite or even have a bathroom break (preferably alone). A young mom, like millions of young moms out there, that have just one wish for her special day, which is not a messy breakfast in bed or a sweetly clumsy DIY card. The only Mother's Day gift that moms actually want, is a whole 5 minutes all to themselves.

Cultural / Context information for the jury

Arab millennial moms are tired of “mom-washed,” idealized images of the “perfect Arab mom” and desperately need a break from those expectations.
