THE SQUARE: a film about a group of young Egyptians brought together by a revolution.




‘’They came to Tahrir Square to change their country. They
left having changed the world. This is their story. A SUNDANCE 2013 selection.’’

This project lead by Jehane Noujaim, director of Control Room, Startup.com is available on Kickstarter till Mar 7, 2013, looking for the backers.

In fact  ‘’THE SQUARE’’ is a film about a group of young Egyptians brought together by a revolution, and who - together - find a new sense of hope for their country in Tahrir Square. THE SQUARE aims to celebrate the process of a truly democratic movement as it unfolds in real time. It aims celebrate the people. It also aims to celebrate their spirit. 


Therefore here is about their team and their plan:  ‘’The movement in Tahrir Square started with a small group of people who believed in something enough to turn it into a reality. Not only is that belief is at the core to what makes a revolution; it’s also the central principle of Kickstarter. That’s why we’re here. People of Kickstarter, we are asking for your support, not just in funds, but in spirit as well. We’re talking to you, too, $5 donors! It begins with you ALL. ‘

‘’THE SQUARE has been accepted at the World Documentary Competition for Sundance 2013, but our work is far from over - at this very moment our team members are on the ground in Egypt, continuing to capture footage of history as it unfolds - to be included in the FINAL final edit of the film. ‘’

‘’Your support and funding will help us bring this film across the finish line- scoring the film, supporting post-production facilities, editing, and the continued filming of current events in Egypt…all things that take this film to the next level.’’ 

‘’We JUST wrapped up our Sundance edit only DAYS ago, but we have more work to do. Your funding will help this film reach the quality (editing, music, post-production and finishing) and the release this revolution of modern times deserves. This is a film made by and inspired by many talented people who believe in celebrating for the greatness of humanity - in Egypt and the world. ‘’
