There’s a lovely chemistry between Gamal, who Shawky met at Egypt’s Abu Zaabal Leper Colony, and Abdelhafiz. Both first-time actors, they capture the dynamic of two people pushed away from society who genuinely grow to feel love for each other.

The film still feels more like a game of cards with a stacked deck than a story that demanded to be told.

Yomeddine is an accomplished appeal for empathy and an entertaining journey of discovery.
