回到亚历山大港3.8

After more than 20 years, Sue returns to her native Egypt because her mother, Fairouz, is lying on her deathbed. Sue ran away from the eccentric aristocrat as a young adult. Now she feels compelled to return – if only to draw a line under their past. The journey she makes from Cairo to Alexandria holds a few surprises that allow Sue to discover her roots. In the process, she not only finds her mother, but also herself. The feature film debut of Swiss filmmaker Tamer Ruggli is tinted with a wonderfully nostalgic hue. In this emotionally-charged road movie, Nadine Labaki shines in the lead role alongside the grande dame of French cinema Fanny Ardant.
