Souad Zaki was a popular Jewish singer in 1940s Egypt, married to a Muslim musician. After immigrating to Israel, she lived a double life: a cleaning lady by day and a singer by night. Souad’s granddaughter, Iris, brings this tempestuous story to life in a hybrid cinematic project that crosses nations, cultures, and religions, combining sweeping period scenes with an intimate documentary journey exploring the complex identities of Iris and her father.
