Info
In 12th-century Andalusia, the writings of Averroes become a political flashpoint. To win the favour of fundamentalists, Caliph al-Mansur orders his adviser’s works to be burned. Averroes’ friends, family and disciples then set out to save his ideas by copying his texts and circulating them beyond the borders.
With Destiny, Youssef Chahine places the passing on of knowledge at the heart of a fictional narrative. Nour El-Charif, Laila Eloui, Mahmoud Hemeida and Mohamed Mounir star in this 1997 Egyptian film, screened as part of the programme accompanying Secrets of the Alhambra.
