ALAA: A Family Trilogy

by Adam Ashraf Elsayigh
generative dramaturgy by Salma S. Zohdi
directed by Evren Odcikin

ALAA: A Family Trilogy depicts the events of the Egyptian Revolution from 2011 to 2014, as well as flashbacks to Alaa Abd El-Fattah’s family’s activist legacy. As such, it features descriptions and stylized depictions of physical violence, torture, and death; as well as loud sounds, including explosions and gunshots. The production will briefly show the image of Khalid Saeed’s brutalized body that launched the protests in 2011.
