Dalia is a girl belonging to one of the wealthiest families in Egypt. When the revolution of July nationalized the family's property and transformed her palace into the headquarters of the Socialist Union in the district, her parents die as a teacher and take care of her younger brother Essam, who studies engineering, but she hates the system of government and the Israeli intelligence has an opportunity to recruit them. She is forced to travel to Athens, exploiting her hatred of the regime and recruiting her as a spy to Israel, to work with great enthusiasm without telling her brother, who remains loyal to his country until he becomes an engineer, but knows nothing about the role of his suspicious sister.

"This piece, with the generic title Film, is a series of short videos built around one protocol: a snippet of news from a newspaper of the day, is rolled up and then placed on a black-inked surface. On making contact with the liquid, the roll opens and of Its own accord frees itself of the gesture that fashioned it. As it comes alive in this way, the sliver of paper reveals Its hitherto unexposed content; this unpredictable kinematics is evidence of the constant impermanence of news. As well as exploring a certain archaeology of cinema, the mechanism references the passage of time: the ink, whether it is poured or printed, is the ink of ongoing human history." –Ismaïl Bahri
