About Ibrahim El-Abyad
After witnessing the murder of his father as a child, Ibrahim is drawn into the criminal underworld of Egypt. While making a name for himself with his best friend Ashri, he finds his high school sweetheart Houria and manages to rekindle their love, but paths intertwine with Abdel Malik Zarzor, the city's crime lord, who is connected somehow to Houria.
Directed by Marwan Hamed, Ibrahim El-Abyad leans on a strong ensemble — Ahmed Al Saqqa, Hend Sabry, Mahmoud Abdel Aziz — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about action titles of 2009.
