Shadow of the Sun

Impoverished Egyptian teacher Helmy is desperate for a better life for himself, his wife and little boy, seeing no future at home in Cairo. He dreams of working in oil-rich Kuwait and its boom in construction being the answer. He manages to borrow the huge cost of a visa and is on his way there, with no idea of the hellish nightmare awaiting him.

Profesorul egiptean sarac, Helmy, este disperat sa caute o viata mai buna pentru el, sotia si baietelul sau, care nu vad niciun viitor acasa la Cairo. El viseaza sa lucreze in Kuweit, bogat in petrol, iar boom-ul sau in constructii este raspunsul.
