Sally El Hosaini & James Floyd, My Brother the Devil



From Hackney, England, Sally El Hosaini lives in public housing in her ethnically mixed neighborhood which she uses as the bright, often joyous setting for her feature writing and directing debut "My Brother the Devil". A festival favorite around the world, "Brother" details the relationship of two Egyptian-English brothers, lives that involve gangs, education, romance, art, identity and always a question of what exactly it means to be a man. James Floyd, magnetic as the elder brother Rachid, discusses working with the mostly non-professional cast and his director.
