Bab al-Maqam = Passion, Arab Film Distribution, 2005, Muhammad Malas This "riveting drama examines the circumstances and characters involved in a 'crime of honor.' When Imane becomes enraptured by the songs of Umm Kulthum, her jealous husband notices the change in her demeanor and assumes she's fallen in love with another man... Passion examines the nature of 'crimes of honor' and the scars they leave on their survivors and on society."--Container.

VIDEOLIB is intended to encourage the broad and lively discussion of issues relating to the selection, evaluation, acquisition,bibliographic control, preservation, and use of current and evolving video formats in libraries and related institutions. It is hoped that the list will serve as an effective working tool for video librarians, as well as a channel of communication between libraries,educational institutions, and video producers and distributors.
