The Bullet is Still in My Pocket

The Bullet Is Still in My Pocket (Egyptian Arabic: الرصاصة لا تزال فى جيبى, translit. Al Rasasa La Tazal Fi Gaiby) is a film directed by Houssam El-Din Mustafa and is based on a story by Ihsan Abd al-Qudus. In his 1998 Al-Ahram article "Victory at the Box Office" Hani Mustafa lists it as one of several films dealing with the 1973 war that depict Egyptian society in crisis.[1] It follows the soldier Mohammad (Mahmoud Yassine) as he returns to his village in defeat after the 1967 war, only to be met with contempt and derision. The girl he loves has been raped by a high official (Youssef Chaban) and Mohammad decides to avenge her by killing the official; he finds an outlet for his frustration when the 1973 war breaks out. This time when he returns to his village he is not shamed by his fellow citizens and the official is exposed as a rapist. Mohammad marries the girl he loves with the bullet still in his pocket.[2]

gollark: See, it's important to recognize that distinction.
gollark: What do you mean you "perceive" time as discrete? You mean you *arbitrarily think so*, or what?
gollark: Quite a lot.
gollark: > The Planck time is the unique combination of the gravitational constant G, the special-relativistic constant c, and the quantum constant ħ, to produce a constant with dimension of time. Because the Planck time comes from dimensional analysis, which ignores constant factors, there is no reason to believe that exactly one unit of Planck time has any special physical significance. Rather, the Planck time represents a rough time scale at which quantum gravitational effects are likely to become important. This essentially means that while smaller units of time can exist, they are so small their effect on our existence is negligible. The nature of those effects, and the exact time scale at which they would occur, would need to be derived from an actual theory of quantum gravity.
