Young Egyptians creating their own space through music, dance, and fashion

Young Egyptians fighting for a right to a space for themselves: Director Selim El Sadek created a short film “about a rising generation of young Egyptians expressing themselves through rap, dance and unorthodox fashion — making their city a stage for creativity in a time of conflict and political imbalance.” He tells NOWNESS, which describes itself as “a movement for creative excellence in storytelling celebrating the extraordinary of every day,” that “the past six years have been a whirlwind for our generation. At a young age, we've experienced anger, victory, hope, defeat and unimaginable grief. This rapidly changing mixture of feelings has caused confusion but helped mould our identities into what they are today… I wanted to film those who are still fighting amidst repression for their right to a space for themselves” (runtime 04:40).
