Directing
Abdelrahman Dnewar is an Egyptian filmmaker based in Berlin, Germany. His short film My Brother, My Brother received international acclaim, including a Jury Special Mention at Clermont-Ferrand and the Golden Gate Award in San Francisco. It has screened at more than forty festivals, is nominated for Best Animation at the AMAA, and is currently streaming on ARTE.
Abdelrahman began his career as a duo with his twin brother Saad, who passed away at the young age of 29. Much of his upcoming work continues the creative path they started together and are based on Saad’s writings.
His practice is driven by formal experimentation, moving between traditional animation, live action, and found-footage collage. His films explore personal, political, and psychological themes, often centered on twin narratives and the blurring of self within intimate relationships, sometimes set against the backdrop of global imperialism and multicultural identity.
