RT held a premiere screening of the film in Cairo to mark the 80th anniversary of diplomatic relations between Russia and Egypt. The film tells the story of a Soviet military translator sent on a mission to Egypt in the early 1970s.

Over the past 10 years, Russian-Egyptian relations have experienced a new powerful rise. Presidents Vladimir Putin and Abdel Fattah al-Sisi brought the countries’ relations to a new level of strategic partnership, said Russian Ambassador to Egypt Georgy Borisenko. The event was attended by representatives of the media, including Al-Ahram, Youm7 and Al-Dostour publications.
