Nelly Karim Secures Multiple Oscar Nods for Egypt
The film "Stories," directed by Abu Bakr Shawki, has been chosen to represent Egypt in the Best International Non-English Language Film category at the 99th Academy Awards in 2027. This marks Egypt's fourth nomination in this category, with leading actress Nelly Karim participating. This is an unprecedented achievement, as Nelly Karim has previously starred in three other films that were Oscar-nominated: "Shoshoubak," "Quoi Quoi Quoi," and "Happy Birthday," making her a kind of lucky charm for Egyptian nominations at the Oscars. The film, shot between Cairo and Vienna and featuring a star-studded cast, explores the journey of an Egyptian jazz pianist planning to travel to Vienna between 1967 and 1984. It depicts the challenges he faces, reflecting on his relationships, friendship, and resilience amid the political and social changes Egypt experienced during that period.
