Tickling Giants background

Tickling Giants

Bassem Youssef, a charismatic comedian-turned-surgeon, becomes a household name on TV during Egypt's 2011 revolution, attracting both fervent admiration and intense criticism from his countrymen and the government.

The Arab Spring in Egypt saw a dictator replaced by free elections, only to be followed by a return to authoritarian rule. Amidst this tumultuous period, a comedy show emerged as a unifying force and pushed the boundaries of free speech. The story of Bassem Youssef, a cardiologist turned comedian and Egypt's equivalent of Jon Stewart, and his popular show "The Show", serves as a testament to the power of humor and satire in challenging political norms.
