Audiences on the festival's second day watched the Egyptian play Dahab, presented by the “Egyptian Artists for Culture” troupe. The play was written and directed by Amr Qabil, who also performed in it alongside the child actress Dana.

In the production, chance brings together a man fleeing a painful past that has driven him into isolation, and a lost and sorrowful little girl whose closest loved ones have forgotten her. Their dialogue begins tensely, particularly because the man feels his solitude has been invaded, but they soon grow closer. The harmonica music played by the man becomes the key to their bond, dissolving the sense of alienation between them and allowing them to connect. By the end of the performance, they discover that they are capable of confronting their fears and pain through returning home.
