Coming to NYC’s Film Forum tomorrow, Friday, October 25: THE SQUARE (AL MIDAN)
Jehane Noujaim’s immersive story of Egypt’s ongoing struggle for democracy had its world premiere in an early form at Sundance this year, winning an audience award. She continued to film and edit the film, bringing a revised version to premiere at Toronto last month, where it once again won an audience award. The doc will expand to Los Angeles theatres next week.
I previously profiled the earlier version of the doc prior to Sundance here.
