CGiii Comment

2011, Cairo: a furious crowd cries the death of his martyrs, demonstrating against Mubarak’s family. In the mean time, a family gets ready to join the crowd on the streets. The deafening sound of the television mixes up with the echoes of the street’s revolt. A young martyr dies, tortured and killed by an oppressive regime. A child is born covered with the blood of the people.

The juxtaposition of archive footage and homemade videos carries the family hearth’s intimate dimension

in the middle of the riot, in a mutual and symbiotic exchange made by memory, blood and suffering.
