Cairo Unscripted—
Exploring Cairo’s Past, Present, and Creative Future

Cairo is loud, layered, and full of contrast—a city that never stands still. With Slanted Magazine #46—Cairo, the Slanted team set out to capture this restless energy, exploring how design, art, and culture reflect a metropolis in constant motion.

During their trip, they met with designers, artists, curators, and creative thinkers who are shaping Cairo’s visual identity today. These encounters—often spontaneous, always inspiring—revealed a design scene that is bold, diverse, and deeply connected to its social and cultural context.

All these voices are brought together in a short documentary film, edited by the Cairo-based design studio Ntsal, presented alongside Slanted Magazine #46—Cairo. Ntsal’s sensitive and dynamic editing highlights the rhythm of the city and the authenticity of its creatives, offering a rare and intimate glimpse into Cairo’s evolving design landscape.

The film is available for free, serving as an invitation for viewers to explore the stories, faces, and ideas that make Cairo one of the most vibrant creative hubs in the region!
