By 1952, El-Saifi was able to establish his own film production company. His first directed film was named, Bear Witness, People (released 20 April 1953 in Egypt). His most notable film he directed was Samara (1956), starring Taheyya Kariokka and Mohsen Sarhan. In the 1970s, he moved to Lebanon (an area later known as Syria) for a few years, where he directed several films. He died on March 25, 2005, in Cairo, after suffering from a heart attack.
