The celebration will be held under the aegis of the Minister of Culture, Helmy El-Namnam.Produced and edited by Dina Farouk, Harag W' Marag (Chaos, Disorder) is Khan's feature film directorial debut and she also penned the story herself, while the screenplay is written by Mohamed Nasser.

Harag W' Marag (Chaos, Disorder) is a social drama that tells the story of lost love in a controversial setting; Zaki (Farrag), Mounir (Lehner) and Manal (Ayten Amer) are in their twenties, and living in a confined community where basic needs are met yet chaos and disorder brew. The two boys are in love with the same girl who finds herself the subject of a bet for a football match between them, the winner marries Manal. This story reflects a football and play-station youth and how they deal with their emotions in a community that is increasingly closed off and isolated.
