Egypt
Months after Hosni Mubarak stepped down; Egyptians were determined to maintain the insurgency until their demands are met. Three talented young directors decided to tell the yet unfinished story of the revolution from their own unique cinematic point of view, focusing on the protestors, the police force, and former President Hosni Mubarak. In three chapters, the film playfully debunks misconceptions and stereotypes.
