Synopsis

Little Dreams

Gharib recalls his life’s journey, which intersects with what the city of Suez experienced over two centuries through the Triple aggression and the Defeat of 1967. Gharib meets Mahmoud, who had been with his father in the people's resistance and they work together in resistance activities.

The Diving Bell and the Butterfly

The true story of Elle France editor Jean-Dominique Bauby, who, in 1995 at the age of 43, suffered a stroke that paralyzed his entire body, except his left eye. Using that eye to blink out his memoir, Bauby eloquently described the aspects of his interior world, from the psychological torment of being trapped inside his body to his imagined stories from lands he'd only visited in his mind.
