 Communities where almost everyone is Christian are rare to find in Egypt outside of the Zabbaleen community of Mokattam.According to Engi Wassef, in her commentary in her documentary film "Marina of the Zabbaleen", many people in the Zabbaleen village say that even if they could live outside of the village or buy a house elsewhere, they would not because they are happy to live within their own religious community and freely practice their religion.The local Coptic Church in Mokattam Village was established in 1975.
