The movie lacks a lot of things, among them the acting

Directed by Adolf El Assal, Sawah is a classic film that features Samir (Karim Kassem), a DJ with no papers but with sheer determination to soar higher heights in the music industry. Propelled by the rising protests in Egypt, his home country, the complicated social relationship in his family as well as his passion for music, Samir wins at a contest in Cairo which gives him an international platform to showcase his prowess in Brussels, Belgium. The trip to Brussels does not go as planned as he is forced to land in Luxemburg. New to this world, Samir faces the authority who takes him as an immigrant, just like other non-locals who pass by illegally. The encounters in Luxemburg opens up the inferiority complex of the law enforcement officers, the multiculturalism, and also the punitive dynasties establishing themselves as the local authorities in Luxemburg. Adolf bases Sawah on personal experience as he found himself in Luxemburg by mistake when he was no older than seven years. His ability to produce such a film with comical twists and incorporate international languages is thrilling and brilliant as he manages to take his jokes global. Difficult as it might be to find a spot in the international comedy spot, the challenge motivates Adolf to find one. His unique ability to use his personal experience and produce such a classic film portrays the level of determination, brilliance and immense prowess that he possesses. Sawah serves to achieve several missions at the same time. It presents the political and social circumstances in Cairo where injustice prevails. Music, however, brings people together as seen in the first scene of the film. Talents, although sometimes underrates, propel the characters in the film to reach their heights. Samir is determined to take Cairo music international while her girlfriend Amal is determined to share with the world the history-making process in Egypt through the art of photography. The film also serves to appreciate different cultures as Samir traverses through Luxemburg. His encounters involve meeting Hebrews, Arabs, English and other people from different cultures. The fact that Adolf manages to fit the main character in all these contexts, and in a hilarious way, proves his capabilities and determination in making a spot in the international comedy world. Running for 86 minutes, the film reveals the talent behind its creation and the determination of the director to present to the audience the life immigrants go through in Luxemburg. The film captures the real experiences of these immigrants, their encounters with the Travellers as well as the authority of the Grand Duchy of Luxemburg that is used to dealing with non-locals passing by as either refugees or immigrants. The film, Sawah 2019, excels in its production and creation through its superb incorporation with other arts. Music is heavily employed and artistically used in different scenes to create emotions, capture attention and tension as well. Though it racks the entire film, its artistic incorporation showcases the power of art in cinema to create feelings and emotions. The lighting of the film offers the audience an awe experience as it is professionally used with the camera shots done artistically. All the aspects of this film collaborate in ensuring the audience gets a lifetime thrilling experience!

I don't know how this movie wins a single award.

This is the worst thing someone can watch in the entile life.

I can consider this as a stupid comedy 😂

The story is new and different, but not epic It didn't have a very bad acting performance, I mean, all of them were good, but the best of them was Karim Qasim, who was very suitable for the character and the Belgian Eric Kabongo It's a light, beautiful, special film and a very enjoyable journey.

I am a Luxemburger, someone pointed this movie out to me. What a disappointment. Reminds me of 2.grade french comedies! The raciest and immigration problems are just lightly touched. Egyptian dictatorship, oh yeah lightly mentioned! The fact they speak more than 3 different languages deserves 5 wins! Woah. Very disappointing unless you like french comedies. The music score sucks! Unless you like electronic blib blap!

A personal destiny gets trapped in a web of stereotypes and geopolitical innuendos. Powerful and nuanced storytelling with a great performance by the lead actor Karim Kassem.

I think where Sawah excels is its simplicity. The storyline is straight forward, allowing for other elements to be the stars of the film. The actors all shine in their respective roles. The cinematography showcases the various locations beautifully. Being a film partially about music, the sound design is also well executed. This is all brought together with expert direction. I highly recommend!

Lovely movie with amazing acting. Very versatile and funny. The story is well written by an experienced writer! Great attention to detail. The main actor has a nice personality and his father is acting harsh yet caring. The scenes were filmed in many different locations and it is such an addictive movie. I loved it! The music in the different scenes is exciting and makes your heart race to want to find out what will happen next. Overall, it seems like a high quality movie with lots of great scenes. I hope there will be follow up movies by the same director, can't wait to see his next movies in cinema and on Netflix.
