For the First Time Ever: Egyptian Movie “Welad El-Am” or “Cousins” in Nation-Wide American Movie Theatres

posted on: Jan 28, 2010

In the heart of New York and on some of the most prominent movie theatres “AMC”, “LOEW’S” and “SVA” the movie “Welad ElAm” or “Cousins” will première. This much anticipated event takes place on multiple locations nation-wide on January 29th, 2010 in the presence of the stars “Karim Abdel Aziz”, and “Sherif Mounir” and “Hesham Abdel Khalek” representing the production company “UAG” who are all on tour in North America to promote the movie. The announcement was made by “Reach media Inc”–subsidy of Arab Radio & Television (ART) – and the head of its North American Operations Mohamed Khashab “Egyptian movie industry is world class and it’s time to see Egyptian movies take their rightful place competing with Hollywood blockbusters”

The movie “Welad ElAm” is the number one movie in the Middle East just now. The movie discusses the classic theme of the Arab-Israeli conflict from a new perspective. In a setting of espionage and counterespionage, divided loyalties emerge, families are torn, and difficult choices have to be made. The movie is characterized by its whirlwind events and the brilliant direction skills of Sherif Arafa, the superb performances of the super stars “Mona Zaki”, “Karim Abdel Aziz”, and “Sherif Mounir”. All This and more makes “Welad El’Am” a must see.

This strategic and unprecedented development is one in a long series of successes from “Reach Media” who has been unfailing in promoting Arabic Media in North America and bridging the gap between the Arab community in North America and its home origins. “In the past we have succeeded in bringing Arabic television into your homes in North America, now, we bring Arabic movies to your doorstep” says Mohamed Khashab “Egypt was always a cornerstone of cinema history and had the second oldest movie theatre in the world, and our vision is to see our movies launched nationwide in the US & Canada same day they are launched in Cairo, Beirut, and other major Arabic cities”.
