In the late 1960’s a group of friends meet night after night on a house-boat moored along the banks of the Nile to escape the seriousness overtaking their country. But one night, art and reality collide—with unforeseen consequences. At once thrilling and serious, Adrift On The Nile is a tale that exposes the crisis of man—and artist—in modern times.
