The Secret Capital
Samuli Schielke/Mukhtar Shehata (Egypt/Germany, 2013. 28 min)
Was there a revolution? Two years after the beginning of the January 25 Revolution, many Egyptians ask themselves this question. The answer is not to be found on Tahrir Square, but in the villages of countryside, the secret capital of Egypt. Convinced that there only has been a revolution if it reaches the countryside there really has been a revolution,the novelist and filmmaker Mukhtar Shehata follows the struggles, hopes and frustrations among people from his home village who between February 2011 and December 2012 tried to bring the revolution to their village in northern Egypt.
