"Love Bites" is a 12-minute dramatic journey like no other, with its fresh narrative and bold perspective, this film offers a unique look at Egyptian storytelling. The film stars famous Egyptian actor Sedky Sakhr and follows two brothers, Zaher and Murad, who find themselves in conflict over how to perform the ritual washing and shrouding of their deceased sister, Hayam, after discovering marks on her body. Fearing a scandal as well-wishers and mourners begin to arrive outside, the two brothers and their wives must make a decision that may affect the entire family. Sakhr, who commented on his involvement in the film, said, "What inspired me to be part of this film is its bold subject matter and its approach to the issue from a different perspective. Its participation in a festival dedicated to films about women is a testament to its support for women's causes, as well as the film's strong impact and high artistic value."
