Ram flees to Egypt when his brothers trouble him for being the favourite son of their father. However, when he works hard and succeeds, his brother seeks his help.

This is a great story based on the Biblical tale of Prophet Joseph but with an Egyptian twist. Ram’s father loves him so much that his brother envied him, they hated their brother because he was his dad’s favorite. Ram left them and went to Egypt to work. After being very successful, his brothers felt guilty and went after him.

A great story that teaches us many lessons.

Plus it’s on Netflix if you’re interested ‼️👌🏻

Al-mohager: Directed by Youssef Chahine. With Youssra, Khaled Nabawy, Mahmoud Hemida, Michel Piccoli. The biblical tale of Joseph is told from an Egyptian perspective in this interesting character study. In this film, Joseph is called Ram. Ram, tired of his family's backward superstitious life, and tired of being picked on by his brothers, wants to go to Egypt to study agriculture. His brothers travel with him across Sinai, but then suddenly sell him to Ozir, an Egyptian who works for a Theban military leader, Amihar. Amihar is impressed by Ram's drive and personal charm and so grants Ram some desolate land outside the capital. Ram soon finds himself a pawn in the political and sexual games between Amihar and his wife Simihit, a high priestess of the Cult of Amun.
