When Khaled Abol Naga returns to Alexandria, Egypt after years of travel he discovers that it is too late to rekindle a relationship with his old love because she is about to immigrate and that his relationship with his aging father is broken beyond repair. Self-absorbed, he roams the city and stumbles over the underground art scene: Hip hop music singers who perform on sidewalks, female rock musicians on rooftops Massive Scar Era, skateboarders cruising all over the city, Graffiti art artists who confront the city with their shocking murals in the darkness of the night. He is mesmerized by the discovery of this world and his life gradually changes. With his limited resources and connections, he tries to support this movement and draw attention to the diverse facets of his city. Details of his private life and events of this movement overlap. He awaits an inevitable change that he believes will come from the dynamic and unique art scene in Alexandria, Egypt rather than from Cairo, Egypt's overpopulated capital.
