Synopsis
Youssef, Ibrahim and Fady spent 20 years in the same prison. Youssef has just been released in order to find several confidential documents. After 20 years, Ibrahim wants to see his daughter again. She is rehearsing with the third man, Fady, the musician. Apart from these three men, in The Juggler, we will also meet an old horseman who hopes to heal his beloved animal and a TV presenter who needs a guest for his show. They are all looking for someone or something in this kaleidoscopic portrait of loneliness and despair in today's Egypt.
