فَازَ الْفِلْمُ الْوَثَائِقِيُّ الْفِلَسْطِينِيُّ «مُواطِنٌ أُسَامَةُ» بِجَائِزَتَيْنِ فِي مِهْرَجَانِ الْجُونَةِ السِّينَمَائِيِّ فِي مِصْرَ. وَأُعْلِنَ عَنِ الْفَوْزِ فِي حَفْلِ خِتَامِ الدَّوْرَةِ التَّاسِعَةِ، يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ، الثَّالِثِ وَالْعِشْرِينَ مِنْ أُكْتُوبَرَ.
أَخْرَجَ أَحْمَدُ حَسُّونَةُ الْفِلْمَ، وَفَازَ بِالنَّجْمَةِ الذَّهَبِيَّةِ لِأَفْضَلِ فِلْمٍ وَثَائِقِيٍّ طَوِيلٍ، وَجَائِزَةِ أَفْضَلِ فِلْمٍ وَثَائِقِيٍّ عَرَبِيٍّ. وَتَسَلَّمَ الْمُنْتِجُ الْفِلَسْطِينِيُّ رَشِيدٌ مَشْهَرَاوِيٌّ الْجَائِزَتَيْنِ نِيَابَةً عَنِ الْمُخْرِجِ. وَبَقِيَ حَسُّونَةُ فِي غَزَّةَ، وَتَابَعَ الْحَفْلَ عَنْ بُعْدٍ.
وَأَهْدَى مَشْهَرَاوِيٌّ الْجَائِزَةَ إِلَى الصَّحَفِيِّينَ الَّذِينَ قُتِلُوا وَهُمْ يُغَطُّونَ الْأَحْدَاثَ فِي غَزَّةَ، وَإِلَى مَنْ يَوَاصِلُونَ عَمَلَهُمْ هُنَاكَ. كَمَا حَصَلَ فِلْمٌ فِلَسْطِينِيٌّ آخَرُ، هُوَ «كِنْتَاكِي غَزَّةُ»، عَلَى تَنْوِيهٍ خَاصٍّ مِنْ لَجْنَةِ تَحْكِيمِ الْأَفْلَامِ الْقَصِيرَةِ.
وَعَرَضَ الْمِهْرَجَانُ نَحْوَ سَبْعِينَ فِلْمًا عَرَبِيًّا وَدَوْلِيًّا عَلَى مَدَى تِسْعَةِ أَيَّامٍ. وَيَحْكِي «مُواطِنٌ أُسَامَةُ» قِصَّةَ مُصَوِّرٍ يُوَثِّقُ حَيَاةَ النَّاسِ فِي غَزَّةَ. وَيَسْتَمِرُّ الْمُخْرِجُونَ الْفِلَسْطِينِيُّونَ فِي صُنْعِ الْأَفْلَامِ، رَغْمَ صُعُوبَةِ الْعَمَلِ فِي الْقِطَاعِ.

Palestinian Documentary Wins Two Awards at El Gouna Festival
The Palestinian documentary Citizen Osama won two awards at Egypt’s El Gouna Film Festival. The awards were announced at the closing ceremony of the festival’s ninth edition on Friday, October 23.
Ahmed Hassouna directed the film. It won the Golden Star for Best Feature Documentary and the award for Best Arab Documentary. Palestinian producer Rashid Masharawi accepted the awards on the director’s behalf. Hassouna remained in Gaza and followed the ceremony remotely.
Masharawi dedicated the award to journalists who were killed while covering events in Gaza, and to those who continue working there. Another Palestinian film, Kentucky Gaza, received a special mention from the short-film jury.
The festival screened around 70 Arab and international films over nine days. Citizen Osama tells the story of a cameraman documenting people’s lives in Gaza. Palestinian filmmakers continue making films despite the difficulties of working in the Strip.
