arsenal distribution is releasing Hala Lotfys AL-KHOROUG LEL-NAHAR – COMING FORTH BY DAY from this year's Forum program on November 14. The film tells of Soad, who lives with her mother and bed-ridden father on the outskirts of Cairo. She has resigned herself to caring for her father and putting her own life on hold. But when she leaves the flat one evening and wanders alone through Cairo by night, it becomes clear just how far she has already distanced herself from her own needs. Hala Lotfy’s impressive debut COMING FORTH BY DAY focuses on the relationship between light and shadow, within and without, life and death.
