Cairo International Film Festival to Honor Menna Shalaby

Cairo International Film Festival has announced that it will grant actress Menna Shalaby the Faten Hamama excellence award for her rich cinematic career at the opening ceremony of the festival’s 41st round (November 20-29). This prestigious festival shows a vast range of Arab and international films. Unusually for Egypt, screenings are uncensored. Tickets to more controversial and risqué movies tend to sell out fastest.
