Egyptian film ‘Happy Birthday' takes top honors at Tribeca Film Festival
DUBAI: Egyptian film 'Happy Birthday,' the debut feature by writer-director Sarah Goher, this week took two of the international festival's top honors — for best international narrative feature and for best screenplay. A post shared by Mohamed Diab (@diabmohamed10) The film, which stars Nelly Karim, Hanan Motawie, Hanan Youssef and Doha Ramadan, tells the story of Toha, an eight-year-old girl working as a child maid for a wealthy family in Cairo. She forms a close bond with the family's daughter, Nelly, and becomes determined to give her the perfect birthday — something Toha herself has never experienced. As her connection with Nelly's mother begins to blur the lines of class and duty, Toha is forced to confront the stark social hierarchies of modern Egypt. Goher co-wrote the film with acclaimed Egyptian director Mohamed Diab, internationally recognized for Marvel's 'Moon Knight.' Diab also took on the role of executive producer.
