São Paulo – The unit of the Social Service of Commerce (SESC) in Ribeirão Preto, in the northeastern region of São Paulo, will screen an Egyptian movie later this week. Directed by Mohamed Diab, “Clash” was chosen to be the feature film screened on January 7. Pictured above, a reproduction of a scene of the movie.
It’s set in Cairo in 2013 – two years after the Arab Spring. The atmosphere of the production is precisely that of the country’s capital city streets during the ousting of president Mohamed Morsi, who had been elected in 2012.
In the plot, an Egyptian police truck carrying arrested protesters of different political and religious backgrounds weaves through violent manifestations. Inside the vehicle, the characters start arguing, and their dialogues reflect the conflicts seen on the Arab country’s streets.
SESC will screen the movie at the Galpão space with 80 seats. Tickets must be taken within an hour before the event, which starts at 8 pm. The movie was released in 2016. The parental rating is over 14, and the movie is 97 minutes in duration. Watch the trailer below:
