Blind Sun

During a scorching Greek summer Ashraf (Ziad Bakri), a solitary immigrant who is looking after a villa while its owners are away, finds himself in a bureaucratic purgatory as he tries to retrieve his residence permit, while the crushing heat threatens to send him over the edge into paranoia and madness.
“I wanted a mystery film that takes place in full daylight by the Mediterranean Sea,” explains filmmaker Joyce A. Nashawati. Nashawati weaves into her dystopian vision many of the most incendiary themes facing Europe right now - immigration, racism, climate change and economic disparity.
