The Devil's Recipe, is a 2020 Egyptian movie, directed by Marwa Benhalim. with a runtime of 12 minutes.
The Devil's Recipe is an experimental short film — a collaboration between directors Andrea Nones-Kobiakov — that dismantles the language of political power through the mundane objects, ingredients, and utterances of everyday life. By blending the banal with the rhetorical, the film constructs new fictions, proverbs, and linguistic manipulations that expose the absurdity of propagandistic speech and the illusory stability it promises. Playful yet pointed, The Devil's Recipe uses its unconventional form to challenge audiences to look critically at the political discourses that shape their perception of reality. An inventive and provocative work of visual art, the film stands as a sharp meditation on the relationship between language, power, and manufactured belief.
