Al-mummia (1969)

Actors

Plot
Universally recognized as one of the greatest Egyptian films ever made, The Night of Counting the Years is based on a true story: in 1881, when precious artifacts began showing up at market, it was discovered that members of the ancient Horbat tribe were secretly raiding Deir al-Bahari, the site of a legendary cache of royal mummies. The tribe had little livelihood other than selling antiquities, putting them in conflict with the Egyptian government's Antiquities Organization. After reading the script, Roberto Rossellini agreed to lend his name to the project, and Shadi Abdel Salam's film was completed in 1969. This cinematic treat was extremely difficult to see from the 1970s onward until last year's beautiful restoration by Martin Scorsese's World Cinema Foundation. Using original 35mm camera and sound negatives preserved at the Egyptian Film Center in Giza, the restoration preserves the film's poetic beauty, its evocative sense of history, and its themes of desecration and veneration. Filmed in classical Arabic, with a musical score by the great Italian composer Mario Nascimbene. Restored in 2009 by the World Cinema Foundation at Cineteca di Bologna L'Immagine Ritrovata Laboratory. The film was restored with the support of the Egyptian Ministry of Culture.

Saudi blogger Raif Badawi publicly flogged on charges of "insulting Islam"

Order: Reorder
Duration: 1:00
Updated: 10 Jan 2015

The blogger who was sentenced to 1,000 lashes in Saudi Arabia is flogged 50 times while shackled in chains outside a mosque in Jada`ah. The flogging is the first round of punishment for 'insulting Islam'. The rest of the sentence will be carried out over a period of 50 weeks. --------------- "The freedom of expression is the air any thinker breathes, as it is the fuel that ignites the flame of thought. Over the centuries, nations and communities never advanced except through their thinkers. Communities around the world and Arab human rights organizations demand regimes to perform further reforms in the field of freedom of expression, believing that it is one essential human right. You are a human being; you have the right to express yourself and think whatever you want to think. Similarly, you have the right to declare what you think. It is your right to believe and think; it is your right to like and dislike. Arab thinkers who held free thoughts always circumvented the text and twisted the arms of ideas to present the notion, since free, enlightened thoughts are considered disbelief and heresy, according to the Arab societies that regards every free thought as mere decay and rebellion against religion and ‘the right path’. Is this normal? Of course not. Both sides, the Arab thinker and society, act in contrast to nature. The thinker must reveal his ideas or philosophy about all things openly and dauntlessly, even if they carried a bit of a mistake or swam against the current of the ‘religious custom’. Society, in turn, must accommodate all ideas and intellectual currents, hence allocating itself an area to listen to the opinions of others, in order to be able to criticize those views constructively on the foundations of creative dialogue, aiming at evaluating and developing the idea, not just rejecting it due to mere differences of opinion."
