Life
Inas El Degheidy was born in Cairo, "one of eight children of a conservative, middle-class family". Her father taught Arabic. She graduated from the Cinema Institute in 1975, and directed her first film Pardon Law in 1985.
Her upcoming movie Al-Samt (Silence) will tackle the subject of a woman sexually abused by her father. The Egyptian Board of Censors has demanded that the script be modified to ensure that the father is portrayed as "mentally diseased and thus unrepresentative of the general Egyptian male figure."
