Sea of Love (1955 film)
Sea of Love (, transliterated as Ba’r al gharam) is an Egyptian film released in 1955. Synopsis
In a seaside village, a girl named Tuna (Naima Akef), daughter of Mr. Shehata Abu Daoud (Mahmoud Lotfi), falls in love with Amin (Rushdy Abaza), son of Mr. Mabrouk (Abdel Waress Asser), Mr. Shehata's co-owner of a fishing boat. Qamar (Samiha Tawfik), the wife of the miserly Mr. Ashour (El Sayed Bedeir), loves and tries to seduce Amin, and while he refuses, Tuna believes they are having an affair. A great director named Wahbi (Youssef Wahbi) comes to the village with his friend and confidante Rashiq (Absul Salam Al Nabulsy). He admires Tuna's wit, sees her dancing, and wants to make her a star, but is rejected by Amin and the other villagers. A great storm capsizes the fishing boat, drowning Abu Daoud and injuring Amin. Tuna goes to Mr. Wahbi with Rizk (Mokhtar Hussein), one of the partners’ fishermen. Mr. Wahbi makes her a famous artist under the name Fitna. She asks him to treat Amin at his expense without his knowledge, and he agrees. Mr. Ashour, at the instigation of Qamar, claims to the villagers that he helped Amin recover instead, despising Tuna for her career path. Mr. Wahbi finally returns to town and clears up the truth about Tuna's honor and Amin's treatment as she retires from acting and returns to Amin. Cast
