    Exotic, Impressive, and Popuar scenes and music

    I have watched this movie three times, and I enjoyed each of them as much! The story is nice but not extra-ordinary, it is just a container for the wonderful shows performed by "Reda band for popular arts". The movie events take place in Luxur, the ancient pharaonic famous city, which made the scenes in the movie very rich and impressive. You will listen to songs and watch dances taken from the very genuine popular arts of Egypt. I found Music of the movie very charming, friendly and marvelous. To summarize, if you are into Egypt and would like to have an idea about the sights, arts, people and music there, I strongly recommend you watching this movie.
