Koka, the Butcher

A young pigeon fighter in Cairo leads his neighbourhood into the final battle. While pigeons may symbolize peace, here they reflect martial spirit and pride.

Don’t Forget Me

Tom, who suffers from an eating disorder and is recovered in a clinic, has gotten her menstrual cycle back. When the doctor tells her it’s a good sign because it means her condition is improving, she panics: the idea of gaining back the kilos she lost scares her to death. It seems like a day to forget but when she meets Neil, a trombone player with socialization problems, everything changes: the two feel a strong connection that is sealed by their shared desire to escape everything which is considered socially acceptable.
