While the film harshly critiques the "sponsorship system" in place in Saudi Arabia and other Middle Eastern countries, what shocks many Arabs the most are the exchanges between Najeeb and Hakim at the beginning of the film. Read these dialogues and judge for yourselfs :

(Hakim)
He was stinking, right? Well, didn't you joke before that attar and perfumes are made from the sweat and urine of Arabs?
(Najeeb)
I wasn't joking. The real Arabs are like that. They bathe using water infused with attar. This guy seems like a rugged Arab who hasn't bathed in ages!
