Safar: Chaos, Disorder + Director Q&A

Part of a new generation of inspiring filmmakers is Nadine Khan whose evocative debut film Chaos, Disorder captures the spirit of an ever-evolving Egypt. Set in a poor Cairo neighbourhood, Manal, Zaki, and Mounir, all in their twenties, live in a chaos-filled community next to a garbage dump where their basic needs are barely met. Beneath the disorder in their society is a layer of troubled relationships, decaying love and a feverish competition between Zaki and Mounir to woo Manal. The film was the winner of the Muhr Arab Feature Competition at Dubai International Film Festival.

Followed by a post-screening Q&A with the director Nadine Khan.
