I loved it. I'm not a cinephile but this movies touches so many parts of being a human in Egypt. People are saying the movie is trying too hard when I see it effortlessly showing different facets of our society.
A burgois privileged self absorbed Aucian man is exploiting working class and looking down on them who decided for a moment to actually experience their lives rather than looking at it.
Off course the movie is directly examining political and social issues with focus on power and authority.
There is some vagueness about the mysterious guy who is escaping egypt in aboat in a seemingly repetitive manner and whom the protagonist sees him as the groom on the wedding.apparently reflecting himself in his maze of psychological nothingness through out the movie.
He fluctuates between his self absorbed burgois part and his more empathic/humane part who is actually living not observing. He only escapes this nothingness when he visits the later part.
