Overview
Al-Marid (The Tyrant) is an Egyptian historical drama set in the turbulent era before the 1952 Revolution, when the deep tension between impoverished farmers and powerful feudal landlords defined rural life. When farmers gather in front of a pasha's palace to protest the destruction of their crops, the confrontation ends in tragedy — Gaber is killed and Awad is unjustly convicted and imprisoned. Years later, Awad is released and consumed by one purpose: revenge against his father's murderer. A sweeping tale of injustice, resilience, and vengeance, Al-Marid vividly captures the social and class struggles that defined Egypt on the eve of its most significant modern revolution.
