DIRECTOR: MOHAMED KHAN
EGYPT
In the Heliopolis Flat is a romantic comedy-drama filled with the faith that the dreams of youth can inspire the future. Yehia rents an apartment in the Heliopolis suburb of Cairo, away from his parents and close to the investment firm where he works, but finds that the spirit or ghost of an ex-tenant haunts the rooms. One day Tahany, a girl from rural Egypt, knocks on his door, and thus begins a fateful journey to find a ghost that represents true love. Acclaimed director Mohamed Khan delivers a timeless story, infused with the culture, sights and characters of modern-day Egypt—from the urban sophistication of Cairo to the traditional beliefs found in the Upper Nile.

Selected Filmography: Missing Person (84), Return of a Citizen (86), The Wife of an Important Man (87), Dreams of Hind and Camilia (98).
