About Shall I Compare You to a Summer's Day?
The director turns the diary of his sexual adventures into a serial narrative in the style of “One Thousand and One Nights”. This polyamorously-minded queer musical applies the same playful approach to folk tales as it does to Egyptian pop music.
Directed by Mohammad Shawky Hassan, Shall I Compare You to a Summer's Day? leans on a strong ensemble — Donia Massoud, Ahmed Awadalla, Nadim Bahsoun — 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 2022.
