Oum Kalthoum, Abdel Halim Hafez, Asmahan, and Mohamed Abdel Wahab were not simply singers who appeared in films. They were, at the time, the cinema. Their voices carried the emotional weight of entire films, such as Gana El Hawa (Love is in His Way to Us) in Abi Foq Al-Shagara (My Father On Top of a Tree, 1969). A single song could stretch for forty minutes, while the camera lingered on the expression of faces that seemed to renew with every modulation of the melody. Yet that marriage between film and music has never really ended. It has only changed with time, and today, a new generation is rewriting Egyptian cinema through music. At Petit Bain in Paris on Friday, 10 April, the Arab cultural platform Kalam Aflam presented Maqam, a curated program of ten short films that opens the Paris stop of Ziad Zaza and Lege-Cy’s World Tour. The event is a living manifesto on how young Arab filmmakers are reclaiming music as an essential storytelling device, pushing it beyond performance or playlist fodder into a narrative that carries the emotion of an entire film.

One year after the release of the book, The Eyes of Gaza (2025), Palestinian journalist and author Plestia Al-Aqad will return to the spotlight in Cairo for a special evening of conversation and reflection at Diwan Bookstore in Heliopolis. The event, scheduled for Saturday, April 18, at 6 PM, will feature Al-Aqad in conversation with writer Laila Shadid. The discussion aims to explore the human stories behind the headlines from Gaza and the broader urgency of imagining a different future. Diwan Bookstore described the gathering as “a powerful evening marking the anniversary of The Eyes of Gaza — a work that moves beyond memoir into a call for witness, solidarity, and hope.” The program will be followed by a book signing with the author. Al-Aqad, who gained international attention for her on-the-ground reporting from Gaza during the ongoing conflict, documented daily life, personal experiences, and the reality of civilians through her writing and social media dispatches. The memoir has been praised for its intimate, unfiltered perspective that humanizes the realities often reduced to news cycles. The anniversary discussion comes amid continued global attention on the humanitarian situation in GazaContinue reading "Diwan Bookstore Hosts Anniversary Event for Plestia Al-Aqad’s “The Eyes of Gaza”"
