In Cairo, the City of the Living (at least according to “Raiders of the Lost Ark”), the ironically-named City of the Dead is a massive slum where squatters live with their few possessions under pitched tents or inside the reclaimed mausoleums of the city’s cemetery. This is Sam, a shop owner whom we met in Cairo who showed us around the grittier parts of the city.
