The Great City
2026, Arabic. Directed by Zeki Yahya.
Confronting the illusions of a manufactured divinity.
"Inspired by Friedrich Nietzsche's seminal work 'Thus Spoke Zarathustra', THE GREAT CITY is a profound cinematic inquiry into the ontology of truth within the digital ruins of the modern world. The film navigates the psychological landscape of the 'Last Man', exploring the encroaching desert of the soul and the 'blind point' of human consciousness. Through a minimalist and melancholic visual language, it challenges the viewer to confront the illusions of contemporary existence and the search for authentic meaning in an era of absolute spiritual void."
