Plot
A man in Cairo in a family of the old elite.
Sinekatalog’s take
Yousry Nasrallah's drama follows a man from an old Cairo elite family, played with an eye for decline and decadence. Lush and surreal, with Youssef Chahine's influence, it is a stylised, ironic look at class and loss.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
