The Rebellion of Nilofleur

The Rebellion of Nilofleur is an intimate tale of human relationships; an unforgettable historical love story of deep passion, self discovery and a woman's subservient position in the mid-eighteen hundreds in Egypt. It shows Nilofleur's struggles with the polarizing differences between the East and West. Philippe Morelet, a Parisian aristocrat, becomes enthralled with the young woman, trapped in an arranged, loveless marriage and follows her to Egypt where he is befriended by her husband Abdullah. Fate seems intent on keeping them separated, but they take risks even thought it could cost them their lives. Their tribulations culminate during the celebrations of the grand opening of the Suez Canal.
