It appears that we’ve got our first dud of the fest in only day 2 by way of Yousry Nasrallah‘s After the Battle. While we can admire the quick shooting pace of the filmmaker (this is based on the events that occurred on Tahrir Square early in 2011) the film starring Nahed El Sebaï, Bassem Samra and Menna Shalabi failed to impress our panel. Baad el Mawkeaa is Nasrallah’s 9th feature film (8 works of fiction and one documentary) and this counts as his fourth visit to the Croisette. Click to enlarge!
