[Synopsis]
Egyptian film director Yehia encounters his first love Ginger as he was being celebrated in New York. They were only 19 when they first met as a student in Pasadena Playhouse and American Dream was the thing of the 20th century. 40 years later, they are back together but the world has changed and the American Dream is no longer what it used to be for Yehia when he finds out that he had begotten an American son who died on September 11th in the World Trade Center. Through a boisterous epic, director Youssef Chahine reconsiders his past and his ambiguous relationship to America which he loved so much.
