- Synopsis:
- Based on a Sudanese short story, 'You Will Die at Twenty' follows the life of Muzamil (Mustafa Shehata) from birth until his 20th birthday. At the boy's naming ceremony, a sheik prophesizes that Muzamil will meet an early death at the age of twenty. The villagers taunt him, referring to him as "son of death", and he becomes increasingly isolated, with only the opportunity to study the Koran. But when he meets Suliman (Mahmoud Maysara Elsaraj), an educated outsider, a conflict grows within Muzamil between his traditional values and newfound modern aspirations. Will he have the time to act out his desires?
