In a dilapidated villa in Cairo, an aged caretaker resides, cut off from the evolving world. His solitude shatters when a gang leader unexpectedly enters his life.
A Gaza Weekend
- Part of
- BAM Film 2023 and
- Contemporary Arab Cinema
When a deadly virus escapes from a lab in Israel, a British-Israeli couple seeks refuge in the Gaza Strip, which has hilariously and ironically become one of the safest places in the country. Writer and director Basil Khalil’s pitch-perfect political satire is a sharply funny commentary on the Israeli occupation, love, and politics in pandemic times.
