- Synopsis:
- Cairo, 2013. Two years after the Egyptian revolution, demonstrators of divergent political and religious backgrounds are forcibly detained together in a claustrophobic police truck during the turmoil that erupts following the ousting of former president Morsi. The factions quickly divide between supporters of the Muslim Brotherhood and those backing the military, alongside a pair of neutral journalists and a mother determined to be detained with her son. With all sense of national unity in tatters and the violence on the outside ever-escalating can the prisoners find common ground and stand a chance of survival?

Confusing but well played - Clash review by nm
At first I thought this may be a little boring but it picks up and is quite raw. My only complaint 9and its a small one) would be that I found it hard to distinguish the different fractions that were involved. So at times I was a little confused as to who was arguing with who. That said, it is well made and the claustrophobic nature of the film is well portrayed. There are many personalities and the actors do a fine job. All in all a good film.
