True Color (Bil Alwan Al Tabiyya)

During four years at a Cairo art school, Youssef comes of age as his aspirations to be an artist run up against the society's prevailing taboos, the encroachment of religious conservatism in higher education, and the cynicism and defeatism with which his teachers respond to him.

Without compromise or inhibition, this courageous film asks basic questions about the right and freedom to imagine in a society overrun by the moral high ground of religiosity.
