Cheap Flesh, is a 1995 Egyptian movie, directed by Inas El Degheidy, and starring Elham Shahein, Kamal Al-Shenawy, Mahmoud Qabil. with a runtime of 124 minutes.
Cheap Flesh is an Egyptian social drama film that holds an unflinching mirror to the trafficking of rural women under the guise of marriage and employment. Three young women — Ikhlas, Tawhida, and Nagfa — share a village and an identical desperation, turning to the fixer Mabrouk to arrange work or marriage abroad. Each woman's fate diverges painfully: Nagfa is married off to an Arab sheikh who reduces her to a servant; Ikhlas weds a Gulf man who abandons her after she becomes pregnant; Tawhida takes domestic work that collapses beneath her. The film is a sober, quietly devastating indictment of the systems that prey on rural poverty, tracing how the promise of a better life can become a trap with no visible exit.
