Master Class with Ibrahim El Batout at ALBA

As part of the off-festival events of the Ayam Beirut Al Cinema’iya, ALBA is hosting a Master Class with Ibrahim El Batout. El Batout started his career as a war reporter. He took the Egyptian film industry by storm where he challenged censorship, side stepped shooting permission’ extremely long and bureaucratic process and worked with first time actors and crew.

El Batout will discuss his experience working with first time actors, the margins given to improvisation during shooting and its impact on screenwriting.

The master class will be preceded by the screening of Ibrahim El Batout’s feature film Hawi.
