"Superstylized! Nasrallah creates an ironic, campy and complex yarn." - Howard Feinstein, The Independent Film & Video Monthly
After being institutionalized by his mother for trying to donate his fortune to the Egyptian Communist Party, young Noubi emerges from the hospital to find a Cairo different from the one he knew before. When his uncle asks him to aid in the search for his cousin, Gamal, he descends into the city’s dark underworld of corruption and darkness. His search eventually leads him to find happiness and a people he can call “family.”
