Considered to be one of the most important international film directors, Chahine is also one of the most eclectic, having directed everything from musicals to melodramas, autobiography to comedy, and neo-realist to political films. His movies pushed the traditional boundaries of Arab cinema. Alexandria Why?, his most autobiographical film, innovated the use of first-person narrative, while other films, such as Cairo Station, explored issues of sexuality and madness for the first time. His more political films, such as The Return of the Prodigal Son (an adaptation of André Gide's novel), explored the social politics of the Arab-Israel War, while films such as Once upon a Time on the Nile concentrated a strong critical eye on the construction of the Aswan High Dam. His work has been included in international projects featuring famous directors, such as the Lumière Brother's anniversary compilation of shorts, as well as shorts about 11 September 2001. In 1997, he won the prestigious Cannes Film Festival's highest honor, the Palme d'Or, for his film Destiny.

Pada tahun 1999 yang lalu,bencana telah menimpa pulau Madura. Saat itu tanah garam diterpa gelap gulita selama hampir tiga bulan.
Suasana gelap itu memicu banyaknya muncul tindak kriminal, namun sebagian warga berinisiatif untuk melakukan ronda untuk menjaga keamanan dengan cara menggunakan musik Patrol. Warga Pamekasan tidak hanya membawa kentongan dari bambu ataupun kayu, namun berbagai alat yang selama ini dipakai dan dekat dari kehidupannya digunakan. Seperti Drum minyak, atau tempat menyimpan ikan atau udang yang digunakan untuk bunyi bass, hingga kuali yang dikreasi dan dapat menghasilkan bunyi baspun mereka gabungkan dalam kesatuan bunyi perkusi yang sekarang dikenal dengan musik patrol saur.

Sweet Charity
Book by Neil Simon, music by Cy Coleman, lyrics by Dorothy Fields
Have you ever known a girl who wanted
something so badly, that she tried too hard to get it? Meet Charity, the
girl who wants to be loved so much, that she has lost sight of who she
is. Charity sings, dances, laughs and cries her way through romances
with the "animal magnetism" hero, the "ultra-chic continental" hero, and
the "impossible-to believe-but-he's-better than nothing" type hero.

The first act is set in one of those uber-trendy restaurants, with a relentlessly black-and-white motif and grouper tortellini as the lunch special. Stephen, a disenchanted architect, is lunching with his gay friend Drew. At the next table, Phoebe finds out her gay brother Peter has AIDS.
