Richmond Film Society - Screening of 'Cairo Conspiracy' (Egypt)

About

Adam, a fisherman's son from a poor, rural background is proud to have been offered a place at Egypt's most prestigious Islamic university, but little does he know what awaits him - a leap from innocence into the world of political and religious intrigue. When the Grand Imam suddenly dies, Adam becomes a pawn in a ruthless power struggle between Egypt's religious and political elites.

A taut, fast-moving thriller, the film was selected to compete for the Palme d'Or at the 2022 Cannes Film Festival, going on to win the Best Screenplay Award.
