Alemiya

Alemiya is catalogued as a feature film dated to 1969. The registry data attached to it associates the production with Iran, Jordan and Egypt, and gives Persian and Arabic as its original languages.

Among the performers listed is Cihangir Gaffari, who has a page on this site; the same entry also names Victoria Nerssesian, Mohamed Awad, Samira Ahmed and Ali Diab.

The references behind this entry do not agree. Arabic sources describe an Egyptian film called العمياء, while Persian sources point to an Iranian production of the same year (1348 in the Iranian calendar) titled دنیای تاریک. Until it is settled whether these describe one film or two that have been conflated, no director, producer or plot detail attached to this title should be treated as confirmed.
