Introducing our nominee in the Best screenplay for feature film category !! 😀
Screenwriter: Fidaa Hourani
Country: Germany
Script Title:A Shadow in Ayloul’s Storm
Genre: psychological thriller drama
Runtime:90 minutes
What Inspired This Project?
This film grew from a desire to explore internal conflict, memory, and identity through a dramatic lens. What excited me most was diving into how past trauma shapes the present — especially in characters whose inner worlds are in tension with their external realities.
Why this story?
Stories rooted in deep psychological and emotional truth often connect most powerfully with audiences. Screenwriters like Blake Snyder highlight the importance of universally relatable emotional journeys in creating impactful narrative cinema.
What I’d Like Audiences to Take Away
I hope viewers leave the film with a sense of empathy and reflection on:
how personal history influences choice and identity, the unseen struggles people carry, and the beauty of resilience even in emotional storms.
Great films often linger in the mind because they encourage reflection on the human condition, not just entertain.
