Although Egypt has produced numerous small and big screen adaptations of the Arab-Israeli conflict, especially the October War, Egyptian filmmakers believe that these works are relatively scarce given the significance of the conflict and the sacrifices it witnessed.
Among the most famous works that covered the war are “The Bullet Is Still in My Pocket”, starring Mohamoud Yassine and Hussein Fahmi; “Boudour”, starring Najlaa Fathi and Mahmoud Yassine; “Song on the Lane”, starring Salah Al-Saadani; “Road to Eilat”, starring Izzat al-Alayli and Nabil al- Halafawi; “48 Hours in Israel”, starring Nadia al-Jundi; and recently “The Passage”, starring Ahmed Ezz and Eyad Nassar.
