'My brother the devil'

'My brother the devil'

Producer:  Rooks Nest Entertainment, Wild Horse Film Company.

Director: First-time feature director Sally El Hosaini makes a bold and terrifically confident debut, hitting her stride with this urban drama set in east London. It's well made, well acted by a largely non-professional cast and seductively photographed by cinematographer David Raedeker.

My Brother the Devil starring James Floyd, Fady Elsayed and Said Taghmaoui is a story about two Egyptian immigrant's sons living in East London. The movie, not being as popular as Skyfall or Twilight Breaking Dawn Part 2 that was released a week after, receives competition as the other two films listed are known globally and are very popular.
