American actor Danny Glover visits Aswan’s Philae Temple

CAIRO – 24 February 2018: On the sidelines of his participation in the second edition of the International Women Film Festival in Aswan, American actor and director Danny Glover visited the Philae Temple.

Earlier, the American Oscar-nominated actor paid a visit to the Magdi Yacoub Foundation for Cardiac Diseases and Research in Aswan.

The second Aswan International Woman Film Festival announced that this year’s edition will bear the name of famed Algerian militant Djamila Bouhired. The festival will run from February 23 to 26.

The festival is held with the support of the Ministry of Culture and the Ministry of Tourism, under the sponsorship of the National Council for Women (NCW).

NCW President Maya Morsy met with Algerian activist Djamila Bouhired, who arrived at the National Council for Women in Cairo on Sunday.

The Algerian activist was born to an Algerian intellectual father and a Tunisian mother who was the first to plant the love of the homeland in Djamila, reminding her that she is Algerian, not French.
