I am making this film out of love for my city and because I want to show its contradictions - its rising violence and invisible magic, and the story of our silence as we watch our cities being conquered by oppression, ignorance and extremism. In Cairo, like in every other city in the Middle East, there is the feeling that we can't keep going like this - the end is near, and it might be violent. On his film "In The Last Days of The City".
