Cytokine Storm
Through limitations, students of Jesuit Cairo Film School monitor how they lived and were affected by the COVID-19 crisis in a collective project. Each explored what the place, the people, and the surroundings' atmosphere meant to them and confronted boredom and silence by taking visual diaries. Gradually, they discovered common thoughts and emotions as young filmmakers.
