This interview with Yousry Nasrallah introduces an increasingly important Egyptian director to American audiences through his latest film, On Boys, Girls, and the Veil. The film is a documentary about a phenomenon sometimes misleadingly called “the veil” by Westerners. Nasrallah's film discusses relations between men and women through their own conversations about the wearing of clothes designed to restrict vision. The interview relates Nasrallah's work to the larger tradition of Egyptian filmmaking
