Based on the field recordings largely made in Tahrir Square in Cairo on March 9, 2011, poet and sound-artist Stéphane Montavon composed an audio script from the heart of the Egyptian revolution. The sound composition becomes the storyteller, guiding the watcher, while the visual layer – a found footage editing – questions our perception of the reality through new media sensitivity.
