The Ballad of Mameluk is an Egyptian historical adventure film following Mamluk, a humble and handsome young peasant who finds himself in the right place at the right moment, saving the king from a deadly ambush. As a reward, the king grants him as much land as he can cover on foot in a single day — with one condition: he must return to his starting point before sunset. What begins as a generous gift becomes a test of endurance, greed, and character, as Mamluk must decide how much is truly enough. An allegorical tale rooted in timeless human themes, told with spirit and narrative drive.
