Government Woman
Xate is an ordinary woman from Midyat with eight children in tow. The only thing that sets her apart is her husband's job as Mayor of Midyat. Until, that is, an extraordinary day changes her life - and the lives of everyone else in Midyat. For the illiterate, uneducated Xate becomes Mayor of Midyat! While she takes on her mayoral duties much as she does those in her house, the infantile rivalry between her children in municipal matters leads to adventures that have the Midyat folk howling with laughter.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
The film constructs its comedy on the clash between the new mayor's straightforward, domestic logic and the absurdities of bureaucracy. It relies on broad characters and farcical situations to explore the classic 'fish out of water' trope in a political setting.
Those who tire of cynical satire will find a cheerful, chaotic farce where family squabbles dictate municipal policy. What lingers after is the warmth of its simple, good-natured humor. — MovieFinder Editorial
Director: Sermiyan Midyat
