Factory Girl Garners 1.5 Million EGP in Egypt and the Arab World


Three weeks following its release in Egyptian theatres, Factory Girl successfully hits its first 1 million EGP in Egyptian box office. According to the latest numbers issued by Factory Girl's distributor regionally and domestically and marketing consultant, MAD Solutions, the film has achieved 250.000 EGP in its third week in the Egyptian market, increasing the total earnings of the film to around 1.5 million EGP after adding the film's revenues at the GCC box office across five states combined.

MAD Solutions has also announced that Thursday, April 24th, 2014, is the release date of the film in Lebanese theatres. The film will be released in a number of Arab states soon.

Helmed by Mohamed Khan and written by Wessam Soliman, Factory Girl is produced by Mohamed Samir's DayDream Art Production. The film tells the story of Hiyam, a young factory worker, lives in a lower-middle-class neighborhood, along with her co-workers. She is clearly under the spell of Salah, the factory's new supervisor, who has expressed his admiration for her. She believes love can transcend the class differences between them. However, when a pregnancy test is discovered in the factory premises, her immediate family and close friends accuse her of sinning. Hiyam decides not to defend herself and pays an enormous price in a society that fails to accept independent women. Factory Girl examines the changes that take place in her life over the four seasons of the year. From falling in love to facing heartbreak, her life comes around full circle by the end of the year.
