This brilliant early short by one of Egypt's most promising young directors uses the universal language of music to create a moody, sensual feast for the eyes and ears.
THE VIOLIN speaks of the attachment a young woman has to her cherished instrument. Scenes of longing, desire, intimacy and frustration beautifully unfold here without the use of a single spoken word.
