Beschreibung
Brilliantly introduced by Nezar Andary, this book is a work of creative nonfiction that approaches writing on film in a fresh and provocative way. It draws on academic, literary, and personal material to start a dialogue with the Egyptian filmmaker Shadi Abdel Salams The Mummy (1969), tracing the many meanings of Egypts postcolonial modernity and touching on Arab, Muslim, and ancient Egyptian identities through watching the film.
