This book chronicles the fascinating journey of Assia Dagher (1908-1986), a fundamental figure in the history of Egyptian cinema. From humble beginnings, Dagher managed to stand out as an actress and later as an influential film producer, becoming a symbol of freedom and modernity within the cultural context of the Egyptian renaissance or 'nahda'. Through detailed research, author Flora Lobato Rodríguez explores how Dagher's tenacity and passion for film allowed her to overcome social barriers and leave an indelible mark on the industry.
