Shot on 8mm film in 1946, this archival footage captures Arab crew members aboard a traditional sailing vessel navigating the Suez Canal in Egypt. Men in white thobes and keffiyehs move across the deck, handling ropes and cargo under a bright sun. The deep blue sea stretches alongside the wooden ship, with rigging and masts framing the scene. The film exhibits natural grain, slight color fading, and a handheld perspective, offering a rare glimpse into mid-century maritime transport in the Middle East.
