In/Out the Room
Dina Hamza - Egypt - 2012
In/Out of the Room features the life of an executioner in Egypt. Also known as 'Ashmawi', the film dwells on the life of 63-year-old Am Hussien, inside and outside of the execution room. Is there a difference between both worlds? Do they affect each other? A few years are left before he reaches retirement age. Does he want to open up without fear? The film is an attempt to get a fearless closer look. Dina Hamza’s latest documentary is a touching film about a peculiar man, a man whose job is to take lives. Sometimes harsh and heavy, sometimes full of humour ‘In/Out the Room’ is a film you won’t forget soon.
Director Dina Hamza will attend the screening and join us for a most interesting artist talk afterwards.
Duration: 52 minutes
