Category: World Cinema

Regions: Middle East

Topics: Music / Art / Culture



Egypt, 76 minutes

Dir: Youssef Chahine



In this beautiful classic film directed by Youssef Chahine, Cairo's main railroad station is used to represent all of

Egyptian society. We see a community comprised of luggage carriers and soft-drink vendors living in abandoned train

cars. A crippled newspaper dealer, Kinawi (Chahine himself), falls in love with the beautiful but indifferent Hanuma, a

lemonade seller who only has eyes for the handsome Abu Sri'. Swept away by his obsessive desire, Kinawi kidnaps the

object of his passion, with terrible consequences. Chahine received international recognition when this masterpiece of

sexuality, repression, madness and violence among society's marginalized played at the Berlin Film Festival.
