- Summary:
- Working with an unprecedented budget and a cast of thousands, Youssef Chahine's titanic super spectacle-set in the twelfth-century Crusades-is Egyptian cinema's rebuttal to the Hollywood Christian epic and a rousing vision of pan-Arab unity realized with the director's trademark visual dynamism. Ahmad Mazhar stars as Saladin, the ruler of the kingdoms surrounding Jerusalem, who sets out to take back the holy land after Christian invaders slaughter a band of Muslim pilgrims
