Return of the Prodigal Son
Original title: عودة الابن الضال
6.4(38)19762h 5mAR
Directed by Youssef Chahine
Freed after spending years in prison, an activist's homecoming turns into a dark affair as his disillusion clashes with his family's expectations. Demonstrating Chahine’s eclecticism, this is an elegant melodrama, exuberant musical, layered allegory, and profound portrait of personal and political disillusionment.
