''The Yacoubian Building'' ( ar, عمارة يعقوبيان, transliterated: ''ʿImārat Yaʿqūbīān'' or ''Omaret Yakobean'') is a 2006 Egyptian film based on the novel of the same title by author Alaa Al Aswany.

Asmaa
''Asmaa'' or ''Asma'a'' ( ar, أسماء) is a 2011 Egyptian drama film, and is the first such feature film to present AIDS patients sympathetically. Written and directed by Amr Salama, the film tells the history of a woman with HIV who struggles to live under the burden of keeping her HIV status secret, and then the dilemma she faces when offered the opportunity to appear on a television talk show. It is based on a true story of a woman who died from a burst gallbladder after doctors refused to operate on her because she had AIDS. The director, Amr Salama, intended the film to raise awareness about AIDS: in his words, to correct the "misconceptions and lies" about the disease, since more people are dying from the misconceptions than from the lack of treatment. The film is not about AIDS, but rather the battle against social prejudice in Egypt, and about "love, courage, overcoming fear, and fighting for personal rights".
