Shown here is a 27.5" x 39.25" Egyptian poster designed by Morteda to
promote the 1993 117-minute Inas Al Degheidy color film Lace
[dentelle] starring Youssra based on a story by Hala Sarhan,
screenplay and dialogue by Rafiq As-Sabban, Inas Al Degheidi and
Mostafa Moharram and cinematography by Maher Rady. Plot summary: In
Alexandria a little rich girl named Maryam (Elham Shaheen) was about
to drown in the ocean but a poor little girl named Sahar al-Layali
(Youssra) saved her; this became the foundation of a firm friendship
which continued until Maryam grew up and became an attorney. Sahar
al-Layali went from singing popular youth songs at weddings, then at
circuses and then in cabarets. She sang well enough that she became a
radio singer, but when she hit someone with her fast automobile Maryam
came to rescue her at the police station. There they met a police
officer named Hossam (Mahmoud Hemida). They all three fell in love
and became a tight threesome. Then Maryam, seeing that they were in
love, left Sahar al-Layali and Hossam to go their own way. She
decided to marry a businessman named Wagdi (Mahmoud Kabil) and went to
live with him in Canada. Hossam was hurt by Maryam's departure but he
still married Sahar al-Layali. Maryam's marriage failed, and after
three months she got a divorce and went back to Cairo. Then Hossam
and Maryam got married too after a long hesitation, with the consent
of Sahar al-Layali. He divided his time between them according to a
timetable, but this undermined Maryam's working life; she lost an
important case and her client was condemned to death. Hossam
neglected his job for a month, Sahar al-Layali was fired from the
hotel where she was singing, their beautiful friendship was lost and
problems overtook their lives. Maryam got pregnant and Sahar
discovered she was sterile. She got into an automobile accident and
miraculously escaped death. Hossam decided to divorce Maryam and
Sahar al-Layali so he could go back to being friends with both of them
without any more quarreling, but Maryam had a baby girl and decided to
raise her without any contact with Hossam. The soundtrack includes a
brief audio clip of Joe Cocker singing Randy Newman's "I Know What
Love Is."
