Upon the Shadow

We discover the mysterious side of Amina Sboui (former Femen member) and her daily life. Her friends of the LGBT community, who live in her house, have been rejected by their families and society. Through Amina, we learn their stories: Sandra, a transvestite; Ramy and Ayoub who are gay; and Atef who is gay and a transvestite. Many unexpected events keep happening and are caught live on camera, as we delve into the life of this community that has developed special bonds.
