678 (released internationally as Cairo 6,7,8) is a 2010 Egyptian political thriller film written and directed by Mohamed Diab.

She attends a free weekly self-defence class, but instructor Seba forces her to leave because she denies being sexually harassed due to shame.

Later, while crossing a street to visit her mother, a driver grabs her through his truck window, gropes her, and drags her alongside his vehicle.

The police file a report only due to Omar's insistence, and won't include a harassment charge.

Seba's self-defence course has grown and moved to a venue that hosts comedy shows, bringing the three women into contact.

He tells them that Fayza will receive a life sentence if he arrests her, but believes that this will inspire other women to commit copycat crimes.

At the hearing for Nelly's sexual assault lawsuit, Omar responds to the judge by shouting from the gallery that she will not drop her case.

[3] Attorney Abdel Hamid Shabaan made an attempt to block the film's exhibition at DIFF due to its "poor portrayal" of Egypt.

[6][5][7] Mahmoud Hanfy Mahmoud of the Association for Human Rights and Social Justice requested that the film be banned as potentially inciting women to injure men's genitals with sharp tools, but filmmakers argued that it did not encourage but merely documented the practice of some women carrying such tools for self-defence.
