The Advice of a Wise Man on the Affairs of Village and Education
1976-01-01
19 minutes.
Overview
The film addresses the paternalism towards Egypt’s rural population by juxtaposing a documentary narrative about a successful educational initiative with resentful commentary that turns out to be a satire of the “wise man” of the title. While the imagery presents the young teachers as modern heroes, the commentator escalates into ever greater polemical tirades against them.
