Renowned Egyptian writer Tamer Habib expressed his admiration for the film “El Sadah El Afadel” following its special screening at the El Gouna Film Festival.
Through a Facebook post, Habib wrote:

“These gentlemen aren’t just noble — they’re truly exceptional.”

The story unfolds in a rural Egyptian village, focusing on the Abu El Fadl family whose life turns upside down after the death of the father, Galal. His sons Tarek and Hegazy soon discover that their father wasn’t the simple man they thought — he was secretly involved in antique trading, holding a web of debts and secrets that threaten to tear the family apart.

The film stars a distinguished cast including Mohamed Mamdouh, Bayoumi Fouad, Taha Desouky, Mohamed Shahin, Ashraf Abdel Baky, Entesar, Ali Sobhi, Nahed El Sebai, Hanady Mehanna, Michel Milad, Ismail Farghaly, Hanan Soliman, and Donia Maher.

Written by Mostafa Sakr, Mohamed Ezz Eldin, and Abdelrahman Gawish, directed by Karim El Shenawy, and produced by Bullet Proof Films, See Cinema Production, Film Square, Red Star, Bedaya Films, and Empire — the film blends family drama, suspense, and mystery in a way that captivated audiences at its premiere.
