  
Youssef Chahine directs and stars in this magnificent final entry in his semi-autobiographical Alexandria trilogy. A conflict with his leading man forces Yehia, now a filmmaker, to reevaluate his life, his industry and his own sexual and romantic longings. "It's an exhilaratingly imaginative and sophisticated movie, embracing a number of themes and styles (including some marvelous musical sequences), beautifully shot and performed" (Tom Charity, Time Out Film Guide). In Arabic with English subtitles.
