Pharaoh
Directed by Fauzi Khaidar
Set in Lebanon, the film follows a man who moves to the city in search of a better life—only to end up begging and living in shacks. One day, a photographer captures his image, and the picture ends up on the back cover of a magazine. Convinced that this will change his fate, he sets out to find the issue—believing everything depends on it.
