Howa wa Heya (“Him and Her”, “ هو و هي”) is an Egyptian television drama that aired for the first time during Ramadan in 1985. It featured many prominent contemporary artists in key roles, with movie stars Soad Hosny, in her sole television role, and Ahmed Zaki.[1] The married couple drama, or dramas rather, were written by Sanaa al-Bisi and adapted by Salah Jahin into a screenplay in a rare anthology series in Egyptian television, where the same actors played different characters and storylines in each of its ten episodes.[1][2] Hosni was awarded the Transtel Prize at the African Union of Broadcasting conference in 1985 for her role in the series.[3]
Plots
Howa wa Heya is based on a series of short stories columnist Sanaa al-Bisi wrote in Al-Ahram in the early 1980s about a range of social issues couples faced.[1] Each episode presented Hosni and Zaky as completely different couples: dating, married, divorced, former lovers, intersecting themes such as jealousy, house hunting, work, and family.[2] Although 30 episodes were intended to be aired, conflicts between Hosni and director Yahia al-Alamy saw only ten produced.[1]
