‘Out on the Streets’ is a hybrid documentary and theatre film. Against the backdrop of revolutionary Egypt, unemployed workers of a shutdown factory stage a performance inspired by their struggles.
Nine men gather for a workshop on a rooftop. There they perform confrontations of everyday life, with the police and at the workplace.
In the process, the actors engage a space between the theatrical and the real.
This is not a film about workers.
The factory is a microcosm, مصر على صغير.
