Ce drame suit le parcours d’un prisonnier libéré lors de l’ouverture des prisons après la révolution égyptienne. L’homme se retrouve à errer dans un pays en plein bouleversement…
Après s’être échappé d’une prison, un homme essaie de rentrer chez lui au Caire, une ville sens dessus-dessous depuis les manifestations de la Révolution égyptienne du 25 janvier. En retrouvant sa famille et le pays dont il a été séparé pendant si longtemps, il réalise que toute la vie qu’il a connue auparavant a irrévocablement changé.
Un film de Ahmad Abdalla
Egypte – 2013 – Fiction – 1h27′

LA NOTE DU PROGRAMMATEUR (Festival d’Apt)
Un homme, solitaire, s’enfuit d’une prison ouverte pendant les manifestations de Tahrir. A travers le désordre et la violence, il recherche un abri dans les quartiers les plus misérables et marginaux du Caire. A la croisée de la fiction et du documentaire, conjuguant néo-réalisme et poésie, réduisant le dialogue au minimum, passant de scènes violentes ou sordides aux élans de beauté et d’espoir, entremêlant des chants soufis joyeux, Abdalla signe un film prodigieux qui va au plus profond des contradictions de la révolution et de la société égyptienne. Rags and tatters fera date dans l’histoire du cinéma et a déjà été un des évènements du Festival de Toronto.

Set in Cairo’s poor neighbourhoods, the plot of Rags and Tatters follows an unnamed fugitive (Asser Yasin) from the notorious jailbreak that took place in the early days of the revolution, and his anguished search for a warm and safe shelter.
After escaping years of incarceration, a nameless man tries to find his way home in a Cairo turned upside down by the protests of the Jan25 Egyptian Revolution. As he revisits the family and country he has been separated from for so long, he finds that everything about life as he knew it has irrevocably changed.
A film by Ahmad ABDALLA
Egypt, 2013, Drama, 87 mins
PROGRAMMER’S NOTE
Escaping from prison amid the turbulence of the 2011 Tahrir Square demonstrations, a nameless fugitive desperately seeks warmth and shelter in the outer regions of Cairo, in director Ahmad Abdalla’s vivid and captivating portrait of the fallout from the Arab Spring.
Ahmad Abdalla’s eerily prescient Microphone, which premiered at the Festival in 2010, captured in pseudo-documentary style the despair, rage, and creative energy of the youth who would eventually become the vanguard – and cannon fodder – in Egypt’s revolution. (Ironically, it was released in theatres in Egypt on January 25, 2011, the initial Day of Revolt that gave the uprising its name.) His latest, Rags and Tatters, picks up where Microphone ended, narrating the stories of those who were cast aside from the revolution’s sweep.
Set in Cairo’s poor neighbourhoods, the plot follows an unnamed fugitive (Asser Yasin) from the notorious jailbreak that took place in the early days of the revolution, and his anguished search for a warm and safe shelter.
With sparse dialogue, contemplative long takes, and nameless characters, Abdalla weaves documentary vignettes with Sufi chants and poetry in a hand-held style inspired by the amateur footage that flooded the media tent in Tahrir Square where the filmmaker volunteered during the eighteen days of the insurgency in 2011.
Rags and Tatters reflects on how film can translate the intensity of what Egyptians experienced – the contrasting moments of blind violence, salutary compassion, and unimagined joy – beyond sophistry and testimonies.
Borrowing its title from a line from an improvised poetry-chanting competition (a Sufi tradition), the film unfolds like an ode to the deeper significance of the revolution, beyond the political, ending with a call for all Egyptians, privileged and castaways, to remake their own destiny.
