Known for his emotionally rich, cross-cultural storytelling, Tamer dives into his 10-year journey of turning a personal idea into a cinematic exploration of diaspora, heritage, and family. In this episode, he opens up about capturing authentic Egyptian life, working with a powerful cast, the chaos and beauty of filmmaking in Egypt, and the deep emotional layers behind his work.
