One might think that a desert would be the last place where one would expect a cinema hall. But an eccentric French artist by the name Diynn Eadel didn't share that point of view. He built The Seventh Art Cinema, an open air movie theater in the Sinai peninsula. But after its abandonment, the place became known as The End of World Cinema.

Most people fight with their siblings, but the conflicts between Moses and his siblings are pretty epic. But we can learn a few things about forgiveness, hatred, love, holding grudges, and healing broken relationships from the stories of Moses, Rameses, Miriam, and Aaron.

Licensed therapist Jonathan Decker and filmmaker Alan Seawright talk about the cinematic masterpiece The Prince of Egypt, and how even though we're not fighting off plagues (well, we kinda are right now) or freeing an entire people from being enslaved, the relationships in this movie are very relatable and there's a lot we can learn from them. Plus, the music and animation are absolutely gorgeous, and the cast is phenomenal.
