Life

Amin's first film, Educational Film, dealt with the theme of sexual repression in Egyptian society: three sexually frustrated friends embark on a picaresque adventure, their group growing in size as they attempt to watch a porn video. The Night Baghdad Fell is an anti-American political fantasy, focusing on the reaction of an upper middle class family in Cairo to the Iraq invasion. Two Girls from Egypt depicts two single women in their early thirties, examining themes of spinsterhood, sexual experience, unemployment and political corruption. The film was banned in Kuwait.
