A2 THE SHOW #590 Our next guest is Tamer Ruggli, the Swiss-Egyptian filmmaker behind the acclaimed feature Retour en Alexandrie. Known for his emotionally rich, cross-cultural storytelling, Tamer dives into his 10-year journey of turning a personal idea into a cinematic exploration of diaspora, heritage, and family. In this episode, he opens up about capturing authentic Egyptian life, working with a powerful cast, the chaos and beauty of filmmaking in Egypt, and the deep emotional layers behind his work. From childhood influences like Disney to the complexities of family dynamics, creativity, and identity, Tamer brings an honest, warm, and beautifully human perspective to the world of film.🔆INSTAGRAM: @tamer_ruggli🎬 BACK TO ALEXANDRIA👉 https://shorturl.at/peznO🌐Please visit our website to get more information: https://a2theshow.com/a2-the-show/⏰Timestamps:00:00 - Introduction06:41 Choosing real Egyptian experiences over tourist spots.13:06 Cinema connecting people through personal stories.21:04 Casting to balance different acting styles.26:54 Finding unique Egyptian decor and props.32:18 Reflecting on the film’s emotional impact.37:52 Animation expressing deep cultural stories.43:28 A lazy but adorable dog on set.48:38 Challenges and support in filmmaking.58:19 Exploring family dynamics and unconditional love.1:05:45 Film access and future projects.🔔Get on an unforgettable adventure with 'A2 The Show'!
