synopsis
Film "HOLOGRAM" is based on a poem, that I wrote as an inspiration for my camerawomen, just before we left to Cairo. I wanted her to travel her first time to Cairo with eyes like a new born but burdened with my strange and contradictory feelings about being in the old home city, and also to feel the pulsing Silence in the midst of the Chaos in this Mega city. The process of not being a tourist and a stranger anymore, being home again and at last parting, is a whole seismographic universal movement. HOLOGRAM functions like a messenger for a film project, where the cities Cairo and Berlin fuses into one visionary world.
