Queer Exile

After fleeing Egypt post-2011 revolution, an activist seeks freedom in Berlin but finds himself in a refugee camp surrounded by far-right protests. As he navigates the hostility and nostalgia for his past, he reflects on exile, queerness, and the meaning of “home” while forming new friendships.
