And It Was Love is an Egyptian romantic drama adapted from Henry Barakat's 1959 classic Have Mercy.

Their home also houses the visual artist Darwish, who uses the ground floor as his atelier, and Dr. Murad on the upper floor, who finds himself quietly drawn to Sahar.

Drawing on the spirit of the beloved original, the film weaves together art, domesticity, and the kind of love that takes root in proximity and daily life.
