TUNIS (AFP) – Tunisia has withdrawn from cinemas a new Agatha Christie adaptation starring Zionist actress Gal Gadot, following protests over “normalization” with the occupying regime, officials said Wednesday. British director Kenneth Branagh’s “Death on the Nile”, already banned in Kuwait and Lebanon for the same reason, will no longer be shown in cinemas across the North African country, the ministry’s press office said. Movie theaters had been showing the film since February 9 but, following protests, the ministry and the visual arts authority had agreed to ban it, activists and Tunisian media said.
