The film represents a contemporary adaptation of Abdel-Quddous’ renowned novel, previously brought to the screen in 1972.
Lagoonie Film Production and Rise Studios are gearing up for the Egyptian cinema release of the film adaptation of the late legendary writer Ihsan Abdel-Quddous’ work, A Nose and Three Eyes, scheduled for January 31.
