    • Synopsis
    • Seldom has Egypt's capital been so evocatively captured.
      A fly-on-the-wall doc exploring the mysterious and hard-knock reality of
      a typical Egyptian belly dancer clan in working-class Cairo.
      Unparalleled access to this hidden world leaves the viewer fascinated
      and surprised that at night they dance.
      „Such frankness among Arabic women is all too rare in film …" Variety.
