About Prayer of the oppressed
Manar marries a wealthy man while she is in a relationship with Medhat. He sends her letters in the name of Nabila, her brother Sharaf's wife, but divorces her when he gets his hands on one of them. He suspects his paternity of Mervat and hands her over to a teacher who runs a pickpocket den.
Directed by Hassan Al-Imam, Prayer of the oppressed leans on a strong ensemble — Farid Shawqy, Shwikar, Samir Sabri — 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 drama titles of 1977.
