Woman on the Margin is an Egyptian drama film about a celebrated actress who abandons her career to marry a wealthy man in a customary marriage outside the formal legal framework. When his family threatens to disinherit him unless he ends the relationship, he abandons her, first stealing the marriage document to leave her with no legal recourse, then fleeing — leaving her pregnant and alone. In a moment of anguished fury, she tracks him down on a train and kills him, resulting in a prison sentence. Her newborn child is handed to a servant and ultimately adopted by another family. A stark Egyptian drama about the vulnerability of women outside legal protections, and the devastating cost of betrayal.
