Believe me once you see these stories your absolute first idea that comes to your mind that you really don't have problems in your life .this film is a perfect description of slavery injustice . The fact that this is 60s movie makes it even harder to believe . This move is valid to watch through all time it is not just for the egyptian crowed but also for whole world to witness. The fact that this story not just a one accident that happened no that was a everyday routine for those poor workers . That feel of anger that u can't even express . Great acting writing direction what an absolute masterpiece.
