Samy El-Kamel is a narrative filmmaker from Cairo, Egypt. He found himself drawn to the magic of storytelling at a young age; what began as short stories and comic strips later evolved into screenwriting -- a craft that earned him back-to-back first-place awards in the University of North Florida's annual creative writing competition. His films aim to envision the extraordinary within the ordinary, driven by a belief that the most powerful stories are the ones unfolding around us every day.
