Plot Synopsis

Theeb (2014) is a Jordanian adventure drama film set during World War I. The story follows Theeb, a young Bedouin boy, who must learn the harsh realities of life in the desert as he embarks on a perilous journey with a British officer and his Bedouin guide. Theeb’s older brother, Hussein, is initially asked to help guide the British officer to a secret destination, but Theeb insists on joining them.

As they traverse the treacherous Arabian desert, the group encounters dangerous obstacles and a series of betrayals. Theeb, whose name means “wolf” in Arabic, must rely on his instincts and adapt to the harsh environment to survive. The film explores themes of survival, loyalty, and the loss of innocence while providing a unique perspective on the cultural and historical context of the region during World War I.
