Article by Nel Garès published in the weekly VOILA of 1938. He had to be part of the Victor Stoloff film team that remained in Siwa for 3 months to shoot the movie « DESERT BOY » in 1937 (Siwa, Fata al sahra). A film I've been looking for a long time but I haven't been able to find for now. The article is interesting because it shows the prejudices and the Egyptian and European mentality at that time. #Siwa #VictorStorloff
