- Synopsis:
Ali (Saïd Taghmaoui) is a young Egyptian screenwriter determined to succeed in London, where he has been a student. He loves the artistic and political freedom, the colours, the music, the individualism. But he has little money, his student visa is about to expire and he has been thrown out of his lodgings. Thus, Ali moves in with a succession of eccentric and colourful London flatmates: Mark (Rupert Graves), a photographer with a very individual style; Linda (Juliette Lewis), a very sexy young blonde model and Marilyn Monroe impersonator; and Miss Stevenson (Anna Massey), who is convinced that Ali is the reincarnation of her long-dead Egyptian lover. All the while Ali is in search of an elusive British visa which unexpectedly leads to finding the love of his life. - Actors:
