What The Preacher Is About
Hatem, a young sheikh who leads prayers in a state mosque, becomes within a short time a name watched by millions once he starts appearing on television. Stepping outside the usual language of preaching endears him to people, but it also draws the attention of the channel owners, the security services and religious circles; everyone wants from him a word that will serve their own purposes. A ruling he gives, or refuses to give, puts both his family and his position at risk. The film takes as its subject not religion but the trade religion strikes with power. Magdy Ahmed Aly’s hundred and thirty minute Egyptian film was adapted from a novel and caused argument on release; Amr Saad takes the lead, and it was completed in 2017.
