We welcome you to Bio Roy, Gothenburg, for an evening of film, music, and community.
Directed by Marwan Hamed and written by Ahmed Mourad, the film follows Umm Kulthum’s life from her childhood in the village of Tamay al-Zahayra to her international breakthrough and iconic status. With Mona Zaki in the lead role, the story portrays a woman navigating tradition, resistance, and power, whose voice came to shape generations and the cultural identity of an entire region.
