Back to Alexandria

As her blue-blooded Egyptian mother lies on her deathbed, Sue, a 45-year-old psychotherapist, reluctantly leaves her well-organized life in Switzerland to return to her birthplace after more than twenty years of absence. During her mystical journey, the sounds, smells, and colors of the Nile Delta and Alexandria finally give Sue the strength to confront the ghosts of her past, allowing her to reconcile with her mother and eventually become the empowered woman she ought to be.
