Fares plays Egypt’s most famed and adored leading man, George Fahmy, a man who has come to enjoy the finer things in life – all the luxuries his large salary has afforded him over the years. But when he’s approached by the country’s highest authorities to star in a propaganda film about the president’s rise to power, the life he knows is threatened if he refuses their call. Drawn into a spider’s web of lies, spies and deception of the inner circle of power, George finds himself unable to escape the spindly snare of tyranny in all its forms. In a clever interplay of comedy and tragedy, Saleh unpacks how culture and creativity are manipulated by sinister forces determined to remain in power at all costs.
