DUBAI: “The Neighbor’s Window” by director Marshall Curry took home the Oscar for the Best Live Action Short at the 92nd Academy Awards, beating out contenders from the Middle East.
The 20-minute film tells the story of a middle-aged woman whose life is shaken up when two younger people move in across the street.
The film beat out “Nefta Football Club,” a 2018 Live Action short film directed by French director Yves Piat and Damien Meghrebi, which was nominated alongside “Brotherhood” by Meryam Joobeur and Maria Gracia Turgeon.
In “Brotherhood,” a hardened Tunisian shepherd’s son returns home after a long journey with a new wife, only to find tension rising between father and son in this short film by Tunisian director Joobeur.
“Nefta Football Club” focuses on children playing football in a Tunisian village, just as characters Abdallah and Mohammed come across a donkey with headphones on his ears and bags full of a white powder on his back.
