Lam Shamseya

Without spoilers: This show is about a woman named Nelly and her terrifying suspicions about her husband's best friend grooming her husband's son who's barely 9 years old. Bold is one word to describe it. Because as someone who has watched countless of American and otherwise foreign dramas I have never seen a show go this far, because what this show did was scare the crap out of me because this is not something to take lightly at all. KIDS?? But the truth is there really are sick people like that in the world, and this show describes in detail the affects something like this has both on children and adults who have grown up not even realising they were groomed.

Is this show worth your time? Absolutely, I think everyone should watch this show atleast once whether you're a parent or a child or neither.

Everything... Every. Single. Detail. Every scene is absolutely amazing, seamlessly blending serious drama with heart-pounding excitement.

Every actor is perfectly cast, and the whole cast works in perfect harmony. Every actor and actress is perfectly cast, and they all fit their roles like a glove. There's no overacting here.

The director's respect for the seriousness of the topics is commendable, and he approaches them with the utmost seriousness.

The writers nailed it, and I'm thrilled how relatable it is to real life.

I cannot cover all the aspects of this masterpiece, but I want to say that everyone involved in this project deserves praise and recognition. They should be celebrated and honored for their incredible work.

One of the most overrated series in last 10 years! The plot was marketed as great social case touching the entire society but that's not true in my opinion, and the case could have been solved since the very beginning, just if the step-mom sat calmly with the kid asking him some reasonable questions to understand what exactly happened 🙄 no need for 10+ episodes around this! The idea of all the characters within small family and friends group suffered from the same harassment issue is very strange and odd! In my opinion, the plot is not realistic at all and shapes a very rare case as if the entire world suffers from it!

Everything about the show was perfect the cast was amazing, cinematography was out of the world with amazing frames, the set design was spot on . Not to mention the script is such an important subject that had to be exposed ! The young boy that was playing the role was amazing we have never in our history of cinema had such a talent at a young age. His role was very difficult but I imagine that the director had his time with it. Not to mention that from a scientific point of view psychologically speaking the show was very professional. The doctors that was involved in the production highly apprectiated.

I'm truly proud of Egypt for creating something like Lam Shamsiya. The story, acting, directing, production, cinematography, and soundtrack are all masterpieces. It's truly one of the strongest Egyptian series I've ever seen, and it raises awareness about a very important issue. And Amina Khalil's performance was incredible-she has matured a lot as an actress. The young talented actor who played Youssef was truly amazing and has a bright future in acting. The actor who played Youssef's psychiatrist delivered an outstanding performance, and the actress who played Zeina is a talented young star with a promising future. Of course, Safaa El-Toukhy's performance was on another level, and both Mohamed Shahin and Ahmed El-Saadany have evolved significantly-especially Mohamed Shahin, who was exceptionally strong in the series.
