Sundance 2012 - 1/2 Revolution

A year ago expat Egyptian filmmakers returned to Cairo to make a documentary on street kids. But the protests that heralded the Arab Spring broke out shortly after they arrived.
This is an intense, personal look at the protests from within the crowds and from the filmmakers' friends' balcony.
Timely and worth seeing, but not at full theatrical price. Hope for a showing on PBS.
