In this episode we will be talking about the Egyptian film Bashataalak Sa’at, its English title ‘Shall I Compare You To A Summer’s Day’ by director Mohammad Shawky Hassan.

Loosely based on the Arabian folktale 'One Thousand And One NIghts' it also includes a plethora of other Egyptian, Arabic and western cultural influences.

With a interchanging protagonists incorporating various experimentations of mixed media, we see the existential contemplations of queer life, threesomes, Grindr hook-ups, love and loss.
