Reasons for stopping Mohamed Sami by the United Company

The United Media Services Company, headed by Egyptian producer Tamer Morsi, decided to permanently stop cooperating with director Mohamed Sami, in any artistic works produced by the company, following the severe criticism directed at the producing company and the heroes of the series “The Offspring of the Strangers”, which he wrote and directed, and competed in the Ramadan race. .

Throughout the month of Ramadan, “The Offspring of the Strangers” topped the electronic search engines, and received widespread criticism from Egyptian singers by sometimes ridiculing the events of the series that tend to dramatic fantasy, exaggerating scenes of violence and murder, and the work dealt with an unreal dramatic image of Upper Egypt, and the plot came A far cry from the Sa’idi reality, where the events revolved around one cousin, and after “Assaf Al-Gharib”, whose role was played by Ahmed Al-Sakka, was imprisoned for 20 years, he decided to take revenge on his arch-rival, “Afran Al-Gharib”, whose role was embodied by Amir Karara. After he became the holder of the upper hand in his town, and married his cousin's ex-wife and raised his son, the dramatic events continue in the bloody conflict, which ends with the killing of the heroes of the work, and the death sentence by hanging on "Assaf and Ghufran".

Criticism focused on what the followers considered the director's compliment to his wife, Mai Omar, and his sister, Reem Sami, at the expense of stars such as Ahmed El Sakka and Amir Karara. Criticism also targeted the high cost of work, which exceeded the 6 million US dollar barrier, due to the state of production extravagance, whether in aggregates or decoration. In addition to the courtesy of using the singer Tamer Hosni to sing the beginning badge, and the quartets that express the events of the series, due to his lack of mastery of the Sa'idiyya dialect and his voice far from delivering the dramatic message of the work. According to workers in the Egyptian artistic community, the filming of the series "The Seed of the Strangers" witnessed altercations between the director and the groups.
