The rivalry between teenage brothers reaches dangerous heights in Toronto’s 2022 Best Canadian Short winner.
Simo wants to break out of his elder brother Emad’s shadow. But when Simo takes over Emad’s livestream one night, the new viewers aren’t there just for his gaming prowess – and the siblings’ intensifying competition might actually put their immigrant family in peril. Featuring an all-Egyptian cast, with riveting performances from leads Basel and Seif El Rayes, director Aziz Zoromba’s latest short is a slick, fast-paced and affecting study of adolescent masculinity, fraternal feuds and resilience.
