About Fortune is a Promise
A young man is asked by the creditors for his debts, replacing his personality with the personality of a suicide bomber who drowned in the Nile. One of the bank's agents looks for him to give him the first prize he deserves. His heirs intervene and fall into the hands of a fraudster. The young man tries to reveal his personality and the heirs' intentions. He pays off his debts.
Directed by Mohamed Abdel Gawad, Fortune is a Promise leans on a strong ensemble — Ismail Yasseen, Tawfiq Al-Deqen, Najah Salam — 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 screen titles of 1955.
