Elham Shaheen loves taking on good challenges
Prominent Egyptian actress Elham Shaheen was chosen to head the
committee to judge movies in the Rabat Film festival held in the
Moroccan city of Rabat. Movies from all over the world participated
in the festival like France, Russia, Armenia, Algeria, Morocco,
Senegal, South Africa and many others. Elham added that participating
in such events enables her to see other cultures and watch different
ways of making movies, which gives her more experience in the
industry.
According to the Egyptian based daily, Al Ahram, Elham expressed her
happiness to be chosen for such an important event and commented that
the films competing were overall very good. The movie that won the
prize for this year was Armenian.
Elham revealed that it was very hard to decide the wining film
because all the movies were done professionally and every judge had
his point of view and tendency but after a long discussion they gave
the grand prize to Armenia.
About the Egyptian movies, Elham said that she noticed the bad
quality of movies that dominated the market lately but she also said
that this phenomenon is going to fade and many good movies are now
being made like `Sahar El Layali, Ahla Alawqat, Hub Albanat'.
Elham said that the Egyptian movie AHla Alawqat was very good and the
panel had a problem deciding to whom to give the prize to then they
agreed to give Tunisian actress Hind Sabri an award for best actress.
The movie `Khali Min Elkolistrol' (Cholesterol Free) was Elham's last
film experience. The actress revealed that she is very bold in
choosing her roles and loves challenges in her career which lead her
to taking risks and accepting different parts.
Elham is currently working on her role in the television drama series
`Bint Afandina' where she performs the role of a poor girl who goes
from rags to riches during the period from the thirties till the
sixties. About her future projects she is doing a movie entitled
`Reesh Na3am' directed by Khaled Yousef. -Albawaba.com
