Dance Like an Egyptian is a documentary portrait of contemporary Egypt, seen through the lives and creative expression of a group of artists and performers. Shot in Cairo and Alexandria, the project explores identity, desire, and resilience in a society shaped by contrast and tension.

Breaking away from stereotypes often associated with the Middle East, the work reveals a bold and restless cultural scene—driven by passion, movement, and the determination to create in an adverse environment. A story of artists, fighters, and everyday resistance through expression.
