Nasser mon amour

Ernesto Pagano | 2010 | Italia/Egitto | 30’

The documentary was realized within the COSPE project ‘Cairo Nord’, which is focused on the issues of participation and environment. It shows the recovery and valorisation of a garden in the popular district of Zawiya el Hamra. Nasser mon amour collects the story of a microcosm that acts as a paradigm of the contradictions existing in the Egyptian society. It also allows a reflection on the causes  that led the Egyptian people to take to the streets and give birth to a revolution.
