Ameer Al-Zalaam or Ameer Al-Thalaam (Egyptian Arabic: أمير الظلام, lit. 'Prince of Darkness') an Egyptian film that debuted on 22 June 2002, shines a light on the resilience and strength of the human spirit amidst adversity. Directed by Ramy Imam, the movie features a cast that includes Adel Emam, Sherine Saif al-Nasr, and Youssef Dawoud. Distributed by Al Arabia Cinema Production & Distribution, the film achieved notable success in the Egyptian market. The Egyptian Air Force assisted the crew in several scenes. Some critics said that the movie's idea was taken from Scent of a Woman (1992).

At its core, Ameer Al-Zalaam unfolds the gripping tale of Saeed Al-Masry (Arabic: سعيد المصري) (portrayed by Adel Emam), a former pilot haunted by the scars of the October War. Blinded by the trauma of his past, Saeed finds himself confined to a home for the visually impaired, where bureaucratic oppression reigns supreme. Refusing to succumb to the limitations imposed upon him, Saeed embarks on a transformative journey, igniting a spark of hope within the confines of his seemingly bleak reality. His quest for freedom and redemption paves the way for an inspiring narrative that transcends physical boundaries and celebrates the power of human connection.

Amidst the darkness that pervades Saeed's world, rays of light emerge in the form of newfound relationships and unexpected allies. Encountering Alia (played by Sherine Saif Al-Nasr), a compassionate artist with whom he shares a profound connection, Saeed discovers solace amidst the chaos. Together, they navigate the tumultuous waters of love and courage, confronting external threats and inner demons alike.
