Synopsis

'I feel the world'

A documentary that explores the emotional landscapes of eight men living in Egypt, hailing from various nationalities and age groups. Through intimate interviews and raw, unfiltered footage of their daily lives, the film presents separate narratives that collectively paint a broader picture of the challenges men face in expressing their feelings. From a 14-year-old grappling with societal expectations to a 64-year-old reflecting on a lifetime of emotional processing, each story sheds light on the pervasive cultural stigmas that label emotional vulnerability as a weakness. By presenting these narratives without overt conclusions, "I Feel The World" invites the audience to draw their own connections and gain a deeper understanding of the universal need for emotional expression and mental wellness.
