Egyptian controversial director Enas Al Dughaidi is waiting for Egyptian actress Nelly Kareem to give birth to her fourth child in order to begin filming the scenes of the new film “Al Samt” (Silence). The film has given rise to criticism due to the fact that it discusses the subject of adultery and rape.
In the film, Nelly will play the role of a psychiatrist who tries to find the reasons behind the suicide of a patient, who had a nervous breakdown after she was raped.
Nelly stated that she was very impressed by the story of the film and feels it is a very important and daring subject to be tackled in the film that many actors and actresses refrain from playing.
According to the internet website MBC.net, Nelly said that once she gives birth and regains her strength, she will begin preparations for the film with Enas, in addition to begin work on her previously postponed television drama “That” (Self) with director Kamila Abu Thikri.
Enas stated that the film’s script was not amended and there were no objections posed by the Egyptian Censorship Committee. She also denied rumors that she had nominated other actresses for Nelly’s role.
