Revealing a rare visual power punctuated by surrealist elements, this documentary by an Egyptian director and a German visual artist follows several young adults working in Sharm El-Sheikh. The seaside resort has become a ghost town in the wake of terrorist attacks. Torn between tradition and the Western way of life, they question their identities and their futures in post-Arab-Spring Egypt.
