Abstract | ||||
The representation of monuments in cinematic films is a interested field of study, offering a rich tapestry of historical, cultural, and artistic interpretations. These monumental structures, whether ancient wonders or modern marvels, serve not just as backdrops but as integral characters, often embodying themes of power, history, and human achievement. Films use these iconic landmarks to evoke specific emotions, set the tone, and transport viewers to different eras and locations. Through the lens of cinema, monuments are transformed, their stories amplified, and their significance reinterpreted for audiences. Monuments often serve as powerful symbols within a film. They can represent historical events, cultural values, or the aspirations of a society. Filmmakers use monuments to convey deeper meanings and themes.This paper is dedicated to the Islamic landmarks and their representation in Egyptian Cinematic films. It shed the light on the Islamic landmarks located in Egypt, their history and their representation in the Egyptian films, figuring out the role of these monuments in the films. | ||||
