Xoftex

Xoftex follows Nasser, a Palestinian-Syrian teenager living in a Greek refugee camp with his older brother, Yassin. While waiting for a decision on their asylum applications, the pair spends their time filming comedy skits and imagining a future in Sweden. As they attempt to create a zombie movie to mirror their internal fears, the stagnation of camp life and rising tensions drive Nasser away from reality and into a surreal fantasy world.

Directed by Noaz Deshe, this production was the first of two films he directed by 2026. The screenplay was written by Deshe alongside James Masson and Babak Jalali, with Andro Steinborn serving as producer. A co-production between Germany, Mexico, the United States, and France, the film was produced by companies including The Lift, White Flux Productions, Arden Film, and The Cup of Tea. The movie blends elements of drama, fantasy, and horror over a runtime of 95 minutes and was released on April 17, 2025.
