Al-Bedaya


OMG i was just watching tv for the first time in AGES and i stopped at Rotana zinema and for the first time i applied their slogan "Mosh ha2dar aghamad 3enaya" they were viewing a movie called el Bedaya and for the first time i see a movie which reviews all Egyptian and world's situations in a really great way if u can catch this movie any time it's a MUST cause i really felt that our situation is inside this movie and i guess this movie can never be viewed on Egyptian TV i totally doubt that :D

here's a review abt the movie i got from the internet

Synopsis
In this comic parable of social and political dysfunction, a plane load of roughly a dozen people crash in the desert and find refuge in an oasis. One of the survivors, a businessman (Gamil Ratib), cajoles, cons, and connives his way to power, and once in control, has them do his bidding. He pays his "workers" -- who build his house for him -- as little as he can and punishes them with diminished wages (dates) when they are not producing up to speed. An artist (Ahmed Zaki) tries to organize the workers/passengers into a rebellion but he comes up against a peasant (Hamdi Ahmed) and others who cannot see his point. Revolution appears to be a certainty though, even if the artist initially fails.
