? <\/strong>Deranged<\/strong>, distinguished gentlemen:<\/strong> In Al Sada Al Afadel<\/a>, filmmakers Mostafa Sakr, Mohamed Ezz El Din, and Abdelrahman Gawish join forces to pen one of the year\u2019s most ridiculously absurd \u2014 yet masterfully produced \u2014 stories. <\/p>\n

Directed by Karim El Shennawi, the film\u2019s events unfold over two days during Eid El <\/strong>Fitr in a rural Egyptian village. <\/strong>Galal Aboulfadl (Bayoumi Fouad) is the Aboulfadl family patriarch. After passing away, he leaves behind quite a large family: his wife Samira (Entissar), his elder son Tarek (Mohamed Mamdouh), his other son Hegazy (Mohamed Shahin), his daughter Nahed (Donia Maher), their two paternal uncles, Kheiry (Ashraf Abdelbaky) and Mamdouh (Ismail Farghaly), and Noura (Nahed El Sebai), Mamdouh\u2019s fianc\u00e9e and cousin. The household is turned upside down following Galal\u2019s death when Samir Italia \u2014 a con artist to whom Galal owed money \u2014 shows up and threatens the family. <\/p>\n

And while that\u2019s happening<\/strong>, we meet comedic trio Gohary (Taha Desouky), Farouk (Ali Sobhy), and Mahmoud (Michel Milad) \u2014 brought together by an unbreakable bond of tomfoolery and drug use. Their latest adventure? A heist on the post office right next to the Aboulfadl house while the funeral\u2019s underway and people are distracted. Sounds simple, right? Well, let\u2019s just say it doesn\u2019t go as planned. <\/p>\n

Al Sada Al Afadel was a recipe for success from the get-go. <\/strong>Since debuting, the film has achieved sweeping success, and how could it not? The film caters to mass audiences in every shape and form \u2014 a ludicrous premise, an airtight plot, and solid comedy (regardless of a few bad puns here and there). We found ourselves literally laughing out loud at least three times. Casting was on point, and every actor \u2014 from main to guest \u2014 delivered a stellar performance. The icing on the cake? The film\u2019s soundtrack, which adeptly captured the story\u2019s absurdity and gave us an earworm that slithered its way to our brains. <\/p>\n

This is a film so positively ridiculous we couldn\u2019t help but feel impressed.<\/strong> From the illogical dramatics and their ensuing butterfly effect, to the satirical dialogue, and dark comedy that permeates every scene, Al Sada Al Afadel secured the only victory that matters: the audience.<\/p>\n

Another hit for up-and-coming director Karim El Shennawi.<\/strong> Al Sada Al Afadel is a brilliant new addition to the young director\u2019s oeuvre, proving that respecting the viewer\u2019s time by delivering something worthy of it is a course of action that indeed pays off. El Shennawi has great potential, and every genre he tackles proves fertile ground for his talents. From powerful television dramas such as Qabeel and Lam Shamseya to big screen hits such as Daye, El Shennawi has proven himself a rising star to be reckoned with. <\/p>\n
