The Cultntat Cultural Program, in collaboration with the Cultural Development Fund, will screen documentary films produced by Cultnat at the Opera movie theater. The screenings will include The Necropolis of Memphis, which highlights the attempts to build the Pyramids as necropolises throughout the ancient era until Memphis eventually contained the largest number of necropolises. This turned Memphis into the most important ancient city and proved the superiority of the Ancient Egyptian civilization.
The second film included in the screenings will be Ancient Egyptian Writings, which will discuss the art of writing in ancient times: how it developed, and how it aided nations in their progress and advancement.
The screenings will be accompanied by commentary by Amira Sedik, Egyptologist at Cultnat.
