π Overview:
After we last see him in "Alexandria, Why?" Egyptian filmmaker Yehia Mourad is in his thirties, and successful in his work, he has grown distant from his wife and children and suο¬ers a symbolic blockage of the heart while shooting the final scenes of his latest film. After being flown to England for evaluation, it's determined that Yehia must undergo emergency surgery. Fact and fiction blend seamlesslyβwith healthy doses of cleverly absurdist fantasyβas the film explores the various personalities and forces that have made Yehia (and Youssef Chahine) the man he has become.
