Aside from spearheading one of the leading exhibition and distribution companies in Egypt (founded by the late director Youssef Chahine), the family duo also founded a new company Orient Films to distribute Arab-language titles across the Gulf countries in order to better control theatrical distribution in the GCC. One early beneficiary of this was the the phenomenal success of the Egyptian film STAND OF A WORTHY OF MEN which made more than $15 million in Saudi Arabia. MISR has valuable distribution partnerships with has many key Egyptian production companies including both Synergy Films and New Century.
