Film star George Fahmy is in danger of falling prey to the state when he is forced into playing the role of president Al-Sisi in a propaganda biopic. A dangerous affair pushes the so-called Pharaoh of the Silver Screen further into a corner.
Showing great confidence in his reliable main actor Fares Fares, Tarik Saleh once again proves himself in this thrilling political thriller as a skilled narrator and critical voice, who is no longer welcome in Egypt.
