Answer 1

Answer:

documentary on Egypt

Western television networks have commissioned countless documentaries about Egypt, rushing to famous pyramids or newly unearthed temples, tombs and ruins. In contrast, cinematic treatment of the country’s wealth of subjects has been sparse.

Even when local directors made the medium their own, films struggled to gain popularity abroad. Following the 2011 Revolution and a new-found interest in bringing Egypt’s stories to the big screen, here’s our list of Egypt’s best documentaries, each offering a unique perspective on this complex society.

The Square (2013)

In The Square, named after Cairo’s revolutionary Tahrir Square, director Jehane Noujaim follows half a dozen or so protesters – mostly bright, young, and secular – across a historically defining three year period. Audiences are transported to the very center of the action from the beginning; this is as close as it gets to witnessing the inner conflicts that moved the Egyptian Revolution to its latter phases. Unflinchingly documented, it captures unencumbered idealism, violence and betrayal.

Ancient Rome: The Rise and Fall of an Empire is a 2006 BBC One docudrama series, with each episode looking at a different key turning points in the history of the Roman Empire. This docudrama focuses on the Latin western half of the Roman Empire.

Historical novelist Lindsey Davis writing in The Times points out that "the episodes were produced by different teams" and "it shows," stating episodes 3 and 4 work better than episodes 1, 2, and 5 and although she hasn't seen the final episode, she wants to watch it and she "can’t say fairer than that." She compliments the producers who "avoid the talking-heads style, though they use literature and the advice of modern historians," but criticises the series in that "once they fill up with battle and crowd scenes, the formula of self-contained one-hour dramas doesn't give enough scope," and because "we don’t see many women in this series."
