Streets of Fire (Egyptian film)

Streets of Fire (Arabic: شوارع من نار, transliterated as Shawera men nar) is an Egyptian film released on 12 March 1984.

Imam defends her from a British soldier who blocks her path in the street and assaults her, thereby losing his place on the police force after a trial.

Imam becomes a neighborhood magistrate, abolishes prostitution in the district, turns his brothel into a nightclub, and joins the guerrillas resisting British occupation.

The plot is very similar to that of Hossam El Din Mostafa's 1983 film Route of Passion, starring Madiha Kamel, Yousra, Mahmoud Abdel Aziz, Ahmed Zaki, and Farouk al-Fishawy.

When Streets of Fire was a success, producer Mohamed Mokhtar shot a 1984 version entitled Five Door Joint, which was directed by Nader Galal and starred Nadia Al-Gindi and Adel Emam.
