Arak el-balah (1998)

Arak el-balah (1998) delves into the transformation of a typical Egyptian village and its inhabitants when the men depart in search of better opportunities elsewhere. The women, the elderly, and the young are left to fend for themselves, receiving only sporadic letters that speak of isolation and struggle. A young boy named Ahmed matures in this environment, assuming the role of the village's de facto leader. When some of the migrant workers eventually return, the community must grapple with the irreversible changes that have taken place.
