The Square

Nominated for Best Documentary Feature at the 86th Academy Awards, Jehane Noujaim's film traces the ongoing Egyptian Revolution of 2011, immersing its viewer in the intense emotional drama of young people on the streets of Cairo. The work to claim their rights and create a society of conscience against the toppling of the government serves as an inspiring tribute to the power of citizenry. Director Jehane Noujaim joins for a Q&A moderated by Alia ElKattan after the May 7 screening.
