A documentary that takes us on a trip into “Ezbet El Borg”; a self
sufficient community, that lives on fishing. Featuring a life style

This critical reflection is made on the broadcasting graduation project which is a
short documentary talking about Ezbet Al-borg (the tower estate) which is a city
that is affiliated to the Damietta governorate, and it is located on the other side of
Ras elbar city. Ezbet Al-borg (the tower estate) is known for the craft of fishing as
the whole place is depending completely on this simple craft and it is the main
source of living for the people of Ezbet Al-borg, and in this place fishing made
other crafts appear like shipbuilding and the making of fish nets and most of the
citizens in the place inherit the profession from their parents and grandparents so as
a result everything they do in Ezbet Al-borg is related to fishing. The short
documentary aim is to deliver a message that there are places that Egyptians don’t
know about in Egypt that if people give them attention there will be a difference in
our society. As people need to know that there are people who made their lives
about a simple craft.
