Kamel El Basha
Kamel El Basha or Kamel el-Basha (Arabic: كامل الباشا; born c. 1962) is a Palestinian actor, theatre director, teacher, and translator. He is best known for his performance in the film The Insult, which he won the Volpi Cup for Best Actor for.
Kamel El Basha was born around 1962 in Malha, then a thriving village in Palestine known as al-Maliha, now a suburb in south-western Jerusalem, Israel. He recalls being five years old and running from his home with his family during the 1967 war, when Syrian, Jordanian, and Egyptian armies attack Israel.
As a child, when there was no television, he would perform for other children in the neighbourhood in his home.
El Basha studied theatre from 1979 to 1983. As a young man, he was imprisoned by the Israeli authorities for two years.
He studied theatre in Baghdad, Iraq.
El Basha has acted in, directed, and also written and translated plays for the stage.
He began his career as a stage actor after his release from prison, making a notable debut in the Arabic version of Brecht's The Exception and the Rule.
He has appeared in several Palestinian TV series and films, including Palestinian director Muayad Alayan's 2015 film Love, Theft and Other Entanglements, as well as his 2018 award-winning film about an affair between a married Israeli woman and a married Palestinian man, The Reports on Sarah and Saleem.
