“Between Denis Dailleux and Cairo it is a true love story: on one side, an insatiable fascination for this unique place, its mood, its magical lights and an unspeakable tenderness towards its inhabitants; on the other, a natural generosity, a city which offers itself to this subjugated look, inhabitants full of spontaneous kindness.
Denis Dailleux makes regular trips to Cairo, in an obsessive way.”
