This is a 27" x 39" Egyptian one-sheet poster for the 1969 Kamal El
Sheikh film Miramar based on a story by Naguib Mahfouz and
starring Shadia as Zohra. Plot summary: Zohra left her village and
went to the Miramar boarding house in Alexandria, where she worked as
a maid. There were various classes of people in the boarding house
including feudal lords who were resentful of the revolution's
nationalization of their land, a former ministry attorney who had lost
his influence, the old journalist Amer Wagdi [Imad Hamdi] and Mansour
Bahi, [Abdel Rahman Ali] the perplexed man of culture. Sarhan
al-Beheiri [Youssef Chaban] was a member of the Socialist Union and
his opportunistic side appeared in his effort to steal the company
where he worked and in his telling Zohra falsely that he loved her
before abandoning her and marrying someone else. Talaba Marzuq
[Youssef Wahby] stood by Zohra. The boarding house seemed to be
divided into two parts, the first part being the class that had been
harmed by the revolution and did nothing but make jokes and womanize
as Hosni Alam [Abu Bakr Ezzat] did, and the second part being the
young people like Mansour Bahi, the fugitive from the revolution who
was arrested. Talaba Redwan was an old journalist who had chosen to
live in the shadows. Zohra had been hurt by these circumstances and
was planning to leave the boarding house but then the newspaper seller
Mahmoud Abul-Abbas [Abdel Moneim Ibrahim] said he wanted to marry her
because he loved her.
