Jews of Egypt is a documentary film by director Amir Ramses that traces the history of Egypt's Jewish community through the first half of the twentieth century, culminating in the mass exodus that followed the rise of President Gamal Abdel Nasser. Through intimate personal interviews with Egyptian Jews reflecting on their years in Egypt before departure, Ramses examines the profound transformation of Egyptian society — from a nation defined by tolerance and coexistence to one in which minorities became unwelcome. The film poses searching questions about identity, belonging, and how societies undergo such dramatic shifts in how they define themselves and their Others.
