Biography

Nahed Awwad is an independent Palestinian filmmaker based in Berlin. Awwad discovered the world of film and media in the first Intifada, the popular uprising against the Israeli occupation. Initially a self-taught editor, Awwad has edited for well known Palestinian film-makers, local Palestinian TV stations and international networks. She received professional training at film schools and training centers in Canada, Denmark, Qatar, and Belgium. Awwad’s films contrast the superficial, quick eye of the news camera and edit, with intimate insights rich in detail. Her approach and cinematographic perspective is to provide intimate access to the characters that appear in her films so that audiences can feel that they know (and understand) the people they are watching.
