Basim Magdy's wide range of work extends from painting to filmmaking and photography. He blends fiction with reality by manipulating how images are read or by disrupting the logical narrative.



The film is about our understanding of time, how we construct our memories, and considers how these subtly unfold and fade into each other. This quiet paean exists without narration, and is accompanied by a delicately composed soundtrack by Magdy.
