The rise and fall of the Frenkel brothers, animation pioneers and the creators of Mish Mish Effendi – Mickey Mouse of the Arab world. The process of discovering and restoring an animation archive that disappeared from Egypt, reveals a forgotten era – a time of joint Arab-Jewish creation, a prolific golden age that ended with the birth of Israel. The film was shot in Israel and France, containing archive footage from Egypt in the early 20th century.
