Synopsis
“Iraqis in Egypt: Time is Running Out” is a short documentary film that follows the lives of five Iraqi families who are now living in exile in Cairo. They recall the disturbing events that forced them to flee their homes and discuss the challenges they are now facing in Egypt as they try to live as refugees. While all of the Iraqis featured in this film have been persecuted for different reasons, once in Egypt they all find themselves subjected to similar problems as they struggle to survive. For now, their lives are in limbo as they wait for the help they so desperately need.
