Imax to launch first digital theatre in Egypt

Toronto, January 26, 2011

Misr International Films has signed a deal with the giant screen exhibitor to install a digital Imax theater in the City Stars Katamia 18-screen multiplex in east Cairo.

Misr International Films is run by Egyptian filmmaker Youssef Chahine, whose Egyptian film business includes managing around 30 theaters nationwide.

The Egyptian company is also a partner in Allied Film Distribution, which distributes Columbia Pictures, Buena Vista and Italia Film product.

“We are committed to leading the exhibition business in Egypt with theaters that offer the best quality presentations, and as such, this Imax location is what we hope to be one of several Imax locations for us in Egypt,'' Gabriel Khoury, managing director of Misr International Films, said in a statement. – Reuters
