Dry Hot Summers (Har .. Gaf .. Sayfan)

Two lonely people at opposite chapters of life accidentally meet on a busy summer day in a Cairo taxi. Frail old Shawky and bubbly young Doaa are both caught up in their busy routines as their race through the city evolves into a journey of self-discovery that reconnects them to life.

The team convinced the jury for its very precise acoustic and visual concept and its love for details on a bitter sweet story of ordinary people in a dusty hot city.
