Awards winning feature-length documentary about Bassem Youssef and the show Al Bernameg. Following the Arab Spring and in need of a laugh, Dr. Bassem Youssef left heart surgery to try his hand at comedy. "Al Bernameg", the first political satire show in Egypt, had 30 million weekly viewers. TICKLING GIANTS shows that comedy can be cathartic. This movie shows people who fight oppression with their jokes, not their fists.

MOUSTAFA ELHUSSEINY
Director at Aljazeera Network
As a director in Aljazeera TV Network where Moaz worked with me as a video editor in many TV shows and news reports. I highly admire him both technically and artistically. He is a very talented editor and he always works professionally and was able to deliver under pressure.
SARA TAKSLER

As the Director of the film Tickling Giants, on which Moaz was an Assistant Editor, I can not more highly recommend Moaz. He was a smart, funny, talented, kind addition to our team! I would certainly hire him again and again.
