“The Crime” was filmed right after meeting with Mr. Hussein who works as a taxi driver in Alexandria, in April 2014. Hussein recites English and Arabic poetry for his passengers, especially a poem in which he mourns the killing of the prominent British singer and “The Beatles” front man, John Lennon. In this case the crime is a means of observing the new behavior that results from fusing and combining a foreign or a number of foreign cultures with the local culture, and trying to live and digest both in daily practices.
