An Egyptian Story
Synopsis
After we last see him in "Alexandria, Why?" Egyptian filmmaker Yehia Mourad is in his thirties, and successful in his work, he has grown distant from his wife and children and suïŹers a symbolic blockage of the heart while shooting the final scenes of his latest film. After being flown to England for evaluation, it's determined that Yehia must undergo emergency surgery. Fact and fiction blend seamlesslyâwith healthy doses of cleverly absurdist fantasyâas the film explores the various personalities and forces that have made Yehia (and Youssef Chahine) the man he has become.
