About Al-Qadisiyya
A historical epic about the battle of Qadiseya, which was helmed by the Arabian knight Saad Ibn Abi Waqas, and which enabled Muslims from conquering Persia in 636 A.D.
Directed by Salah Abu Seif, Al-Qadisiyya leans on a strong ensemble — Soad Hosny, Ezzat Al Alaily, Laila Taher — 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 history titles of 1981.
