Wael Ihsan is an Egyptian director. He graduated at the faculty of commerce in 1986, then studied film production at the High Cinema Institute of Cairo until 1991. His breakthrough came at the early 2000s, with his debut “El Lemby”, which was one of the most successful films in Egyptian cinema history.
