The Night of Counting the Years

المومياء

Also known as The Mummy, Die Mumie oder die Nacht der gezählten Stunden, Vuosituhansien yö, La mummia, Natten de talte tårene

“The day when the years are counted”

Set in 1881, a year before the start of British colonial rule, it is based on the true story of the Abd el-Rasuls, an Upper-Egyptian clan that had been robbing a cache of mummies they have discovered at tomb DB320 near the village of Kurna, and selling the artifacts on the black market. After a conflict within the clan, one of its members made a crucial decision when the Antiquities Service arrived.
