Tahta Sama’ Dimashq

Ismaïl Anzour
1931 Syria 60 minutes silent

A man is found murdered under the balcony of the daughter of a bourgeois family. She is accused of having had a sinful relationship with him. A melodrama that documents Syrian life and mentalities in the 1930s. The arrival of the first Egyptian “talking” films, disagreement with the censorship and problems with rights clearance put an early end to the film’s career and the production company destiny.
