Overview

Set against the streets of Alexandria, The Porters follows Nassar, a seasoned thief who falls in love and resolves to leave his criminal past behind. But walking away proves far more dangerous than staying — as former allies, rivals, and family close in on him from all sides. Starring Ahmed El Sakka and Tarek Lotfy, it's a gritty, fast-paced crime drama built on betrayal, brotherhood, and the cost of trying to change.
