Egypt's most beloved actor, George Fahmy (Fares Fares), is pressured to star in a film commissioned by the government. A film that is a deliberate distortion of reality. He reluctantly accepts the role and is thrust into the inner circle of power. Like a moth to a flame, he begins a relationship with the mysterious wife of the general in charge of the film. Eagles of the Republic is an intense political noir that pulls back the curtain on propaganda and complicity. Through George Fahmy's harrowing journey, it explores how art and power meet, revealing the seductive appeal of cinema and its ability to subvert ethics under autocracy.

The screening times are available in the New Nordic Films catalogue.
