With stars from all over the world, the Cairo Film Festival opened yesterday in a glamorous Hollywood-style ceremony. Red carpets, world-class stars, cameras flashing and dozens of press from all over the world.
The organizing company had promised to deliver something special this year and even though it’s quite early to judge, but it seems they’ve done a great job.
There were many Arab and international stars on the stage such as Danny Glover who wore a traditional African dress and opened his speech with “Alsalamu Alaikum”. Omar El Sherif who was the chairman of the festival.
Omar El Sherif said this year would be very special and distinctive from the previous years.
Also at the event were, English star Jacqueline Bisset and Argentinian star Maria Pitarresi, in addition to Yussra and Mahmood Abdel Azizi.
