Life in the streets. The boss, the watchman, the ‘big’ one. The video, produced by Adham el Sherif, shows Cairo through the eyes of a street dog, painting an insightful metaphor of a city where social boundaries and street codes define the urban landscape.
Who rules the streets of Cairo? The strongest? The numerous?
The most courageous? A tale of companionship and a poignant observation on freedom, the video was awarded various prizes at international festivals in 2012 such as the Milano African film festival, the Tampere International Film Festival, and the Montenegro international film festival, among other film festivals held in Egypt.
