"The Emigrant"
1994
Directed by Youssef Chahine

The biblical story of Joseph, told from an Egyptian perspective and filmed among the ruins of antiquity, the film follows Ram (Chahine changed the characters' names to avoid persecution) as he travels to Egypt to study, only to end up a slave caught in the political and sexual games between a military leader and his wife, a priestess in the Cult of Amun. "...a fascinating retelling of the Genesis tale" (Derek Elley, Variety). Arabic and French with English subtitles. Egypt.  128 minutes.
