VOX Cinemas hosts UAE premiere of ‘Darwish’ with Egyptian stars

ABU DHABI (ALETIHAD)

VOX Cinemas proudly hosted the glitzy UAE premiere of the spy action-thriller “Darwish” at Mall of the Emirates on Wednesday. 

Cast members Amr Youssef, Dina El Sherbiny, and Tara Emad brought their star power to red-carpet event, which was also attended key media personalities and influencers. 

“Darwish” releases at VOX Cinemas across the UAE, Oman, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Kuwait, Qatar, and Lebanon on August 28.

Directed by Walid Elhalafawy, written by Wessam Sabry and co-produced by VOX Studios, One to One Productions, Film Clinic and Film Square, the 1940s caper follows the story of a charming con artist Darwish (Amr Youssef) and his partner Zobaida (Dina El Sherbiny) who thrive on high-stakes heists. 

Wrongly accused of murder, he becomes an accidental hero to revolutionaries and is drawn into a dangerous game of espionage and deceit. 

Amidst the chaos, Darwish crosses paths with Kariman (Tara Emad), a fierce resistance fighter, who sees something redeemable in him. 

Caught between Zobaida’s manipulations and Kariman’s unwavering belief in his potential, Darwish must navigate love, betrayal, and his web of lies before everything falls apart.
