"Waleematehom" is a new submission to ÉCU 2013 in the category Student Film. The recent Egyptian revolution released many prisoners who were abused by the forces of national security. Many prisoners were imprisoned with no real charges, while their families were denied access to them. The mother, who's been worn down by poverty, wants to make a festive meal to welcome the return of her son and her other 13 years old son tries to help bring an ingredient for that festive meal, by taking what he's not given. Egypt has been the feast for those in power, while its poor majority strive for their daily meals. Will the revolution retrieve the stolen spirit of the youth?
