About Al-Qadeya Al-Mashhora
Jasser sneaks into Yassin's house to steal, but he senses a strange movement, as Saadia, the servant Ibrahim's wife, tries to find out who is in the house, so he kills her and Yassin. During that, Ibrahim arrives, and his daughter Naima testifies against him after seeing him holding a knife next to her mother's body, so he is imprisoned, and events escalate.
Directed by Hassan Al-Imam, Al-Qadeya Al-Mashhora leans on a strong ensemble — Rushdy Abaza, Farid Shawqy, 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 crime titles of 1978.
