Part of 10th edition of Zawya Shorts.

THE SKY IS FALLING - Mostafa Gerbeii "Kafr" is a man in his mid-thirties, a manager at a coffee roasting factory, who, in a state of panic, rushes into the factory after locking all the doors to warn the workers that the sky is falling outside and that no one can leave. The workers react to the news in various ways, ranging from disbelief to questioning Kafr's mental stability. One worker challenges Kafr's decision and attempts to leave, igniting a fierce confrontation between the two that spirals into chaos within the factory. —-------------------------------------- LIVING UNDERGROUND - Mohamed Essam Abdel-Razek After eight years working in an underground garage in downtown Cairo, Lotfy begins to question a life spent in the shadows and dreams of a future beyond the world he only knows through TV and radio. Believing he shares the fate of a long-abandoned car parked in the garage, he gathers the courage to step into the city’s bright lights, only to confront the limits of his fears and the fragile space between dreaming and doing. —-------------------------------------- MOMENTUM - Nada El-Omari Momentum reflects on memory and the enduring force of images. Twenty years after a day was recorded, its people and places resurface—reshaped by time but not erased. The film questions the tension between evidence and emotion, and what it means to bear witness in a world where truth alone is not always enough. —-------------------------------------- PUBLIC SPACE - Farah Elmokadem Drawing from personal experience, Farah works collectively with a close circle of friends to reflect on public expressions of intimacy in the streets of Cairo. The film shares romantic moments shaped by social control and unspoken rules, enforced by the morality police and their honorable citizens. —-------------------------------------- THE LAST MIRACLE - Abdelwahab Shawky Forty-year-old Yahya is sitting at a bar when he receives an unexpected phone call from a deceased sheikh, setting him on a journey that leads to an unforeseen conclusion. —-------------------------------------- BREAKING OUT OF ALI AND MAHER’S BASE - Abanoub Youssef In a quiet village, a runaway donkey sends its wealthy owners on a restless chase, stirring hidden tensions and an ironic reality that exposes the absurdities of class divisions in everyday rural life. —--------------------------------------
