Overview

Ihkilili is an Egyptian documentary in which a mother and her daughter embark on a shared journey through four generations of women in their Egyptian-Levantine family — a family whose life has long been intertwined with cinema. Sifting through family archives, the two women encounter footage where reality and fiction blur, and where their own story intersects with the autobiographical films of legendary director Youssef Chahine. The journey carries them from Alexandria to Cairo, and then across to Paris and Havana, weaving personal memory into the fabric of a wider cultural history. The result is an intimate, searching portrait of women across time — their choices, their silences, and the emotions they pass down.
