CAIRO – 6 January 2020:  Egypt’s Minister of Culture Inas Abdel Dayem congratulated the Copts and all Egyptians on the occasion of Christmas.

 

She said that Egypt remains a model of tolerance and coexistence and a unique example of the unity of the national fabric over the years.

 

On this occasion, the Ministry of Culture celebrates on its YouTube channel. On January 7, the movie "Salt of the Earth" will be broadcast. The movie is from the graduation projects of the students of the Higher Institute of Cinema at the Academy of Arts, directed by Bishoy Ashraf, on the story of the monastery of Anba Antonius.

 

It tells the true story of Father Azar Anthony, a university professor who gave up his life in Australia, and went on a journey to search for God and freedom, to end up as a Coptic Christian monk living in isolation on Mount Clysma in the Red Sea.

 

At 10 p.m., a recorded concert for the Egyptian-German band Cairo Steps, will be broadcast, led by Maestro Sebastian Muller, with the participation of the founder of the band, the oud master player Bassem Darwish.

 

During the performance, Egypt’s Minister of Culture will participate by playing the flute, in addition to the participation of veteran singer Ali el-Haggar and numerous other performances.
