"E’daa’m Mayet" (Arabic: إعدام ميت, lit. 'Execution of a Dead Man') is a 1985 Egyptian drama and thriller film directed by Ali Abdel Khaleq and written by Ibrahim Masoud. It stars Mahmoud Abdel Aziz, Farid Shawqi, Yehia El-Fakharany, Poussi, and Laila Elwi. This movie is widely regarded as one of the classics of Egyptian cinema and is remembered for its compelling narrative and undertones.
The story of E’daa’m Mayet draws inspiration from real-life cases during the tense political period between Egypt and Israel in the 1970s. The film’s portrayal of the Dimona nuclear reactor highlights the era's intelligence wars and the risks undertaken by operatives on both sides.
Plot
In 1972, Mansour, an assistant to Tubji and a collaborator with Israeli intelligence, is arrested and sentenced to death. The Egyptian Intelligence Service discovers the striking resemblance between Mansour and Egyptian intelligence officer Ezz El-Din. They devise a plan for Ezz to assume Mansour’s identity and undertake a mission to uncover secrets about the Israeli nuclear reactor, Dimona.
Mansour trains Ezz extensively on his behavior, personality, and lifestyle, except for his personal relationship with a woman named Poussi. Ezz then travels to Israel under the guise of Mansour. Poussi begins to suspect his true identity and attempts to expose him to Abu Juda, a representative of Mossad, claiming he is not the real Mansour. However, her efforts fail, and Abu Juda kills her.
As Ezz successfully completes his mission, Mansour’s father discovers Ezz’s true identity and informs Abu Juda. This revelation leads to a critical turning point. Mansour's father requests that the Israeli intelligence return his son. Subsequently, an agreement is made between the Egyptian and Israeli intelligence agencies: three Israeli pilots and Mansour will be exchanged for Ezz.
At the prisoner exchange site, Sheikh Massa'd Tubji (Mansour’s father) takes justice into his own hands by killing his son to cleanse the shame of betraying the homeland.
