About
You can watch A Hologram for the King (2016) on Hoopla with a participating library card, rent on Apple TV+, or buy on Apple TV+.
Alan Clay, a struggling American businessman, travels to Saudi Arabia to sell a new technology to the King, only to be challenged by endless Middle Eastern bureaucracy, a perpetually absent monarch, and a suspicious growth on his back.
Instead of a high-octane corporate thriller, this quiet comedy finds humor in the agonizingly slow pace of Middle Eastern bureaucracy and endless waiting rooms. A frantic businessman battles both a mounting pile of paperwork and a growing medical mystery while trying to secure a deal that feels increasingly out of reach.
