El Keif is an intriguing blend of comedy, crime, and drama. The film weaves a colorful narrative around Gamal, who performs at weddings, and his brother Salah, a chemist. What’s fascinating is how it explores the dark side of ambition and temptation. Salah's descent into the drug world is both compelling and tragic. The performances have a certain rawness that fits the film's gritty atmosphere. The pacing meanders, reflecting the ups and downs of their lives. The practical effects, though modest, ground the story in a reality that makes the comedy hit harder. It’s a unique lens on drug culture of the time, and there's something refreshingly honest about its approach to these themes.
