Synopsis

The story centers on the challenges faced by married individuals in Egypt, particularly from economic and social perspectives. A poor young man named Masoud falls in love with Lina, an aristocratic woman, and marries her despite her father's disapproval. Lina, who is determined to live a simple life with her husband whom she loves, faces pressure from her father through various means, including threats to cut her out of the inheritance. In an effort to escape their difficult life in a rented home, Masoud asks Lina to move with him to her father's villa.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 12

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
