Trivia (17)
At the beginning of the film, it says: "Dedication, in memory of Soad Hosny (1943-2001)".
At the beginning of the film, a dedication to the artist Soad Hosny was written, and parts of more than one of her songs were used as musical backgrounds or comments in some scenes (about 12 times, using 11 songs).
The factory is called "Textile Clothing Factory".
The film begins in winter, with rain falling.
When The Switchboard Owner first appears, we see Samira watching Play: The School of Mischief.
Work at the clothing factory (workshop) starts at eight in the morning.

Hayam's phone number: 0105134524.
The female workers leave the factory at five in the evening.

The name of actor Muhammad Khamis is written twice in the second credits, once with the main roles and once with the secondary roles (for the same role).
The name of actress Magda Muhammed Nassar is written twice in the second credits, once in the role of Om Ehab and once in the role of Factory Supervisor.
The name of actor Ashraf Nagy (in the role of Junk Dealer) is written twice in the second credits for the same role (under the heading "Residents of Al-Abageya").

When Hayam tears the newspaper page and throws it into the Nile, we see the hand she throws it with on the iron railing of the bridge, but in the next shot (from below the bridge) we see a difference in the position of her hand on the railing.
Hayam dictates her mobile number to Salah as ten digits, but the mobile number should have 11 digits (as the numbers had been expanded before the film was produced). Even if the intention was that the film takes place before the date when mobile numbers were expanded, in the final quarter of the film we see Salah's mobile number with 11 digits.
In Hayam's final dance, when the music changes from a song by Um Kalthoum to the credits song, we notice the shadow of the camera moving on Hayam's clothes as the camera rotates.
