Beirut: Hayam Al-Sayed
Actress Sahar Hamdi appeared in the Ramadan season in two works, “For Death 3” and “Bab Al-Hara”, although she filmed a third work, “Northern Roundabout”, but it was not shown due to the delay in the editing process .. Fawzi spoke to “The Gulf” about her participation in These two works, and about the situation of the Syrian actor and the Syrian drama.
- How do you talk about your participation in the third part of the series “For Death”?
– I will not add anything to what people say that it is a good work, a story, directing, and performance by the actors. I am happy to work with director Philip Asmar, with whom I previously collaborated in the series “No Judgment.”
- What about your involvement in other businesses?
She also participated in “Bab Al-Hara” and “Northern Roundabout”, and the second was not ready for the show due to the delay in the editing process.
- Can it be said that the Syrian actor prefers joint works over local ones?
– It is not new for any actor to participate in joint works, and for many years we have been filming works in Greece with the participation of representatives from most Arab countries .. The actor is looking for good work, in production, text and direction, regardless of his nationality.
- Is it possible to say that the Arab viewer relates more to the actor than to the work itself?
– This matter is related to the state of normality and success achieved by the actor. When it is said that there is work by Qusay Khouli, Tim Hassan, or Basil Khayyat, I am keen to watch it because they have proven their existence through their successful works that confirm the correctness of their choices, and the same applies to directors because we watch The work is sometimes from the name of its director, or from the name of the production company, which has accustomed us to presenting works that are distinguished by their good level and are worthy of follow-up, and not purely commercial works, so that the technical condition is the most important for them .. There are certain names whose works we follow because we know together their options, and it is not possible She is satisfied that her name is in any work.
- But no business can guarantee its success, whatever the name of the actor?
– This is true, but the audience that follows the works of certain names has not failed any of them so far, and every work by Qusay Khouli, Tim Hassan, or Basil Khayyat is better than the one that preceded it because they are in a constant state of development, and they are keen to introduce new characters that they have not played before. .
- Is the Syrian drama launched again?
– We lived through a long state of war and a state of siege that affected all fields and sectors, including the dramatic sector. We thank God and feel reassured that the Syrian drama still maintains its position, even with a very high-level work that is presented annually.. We are living through crises and the cost of one filming day is very high. We work very hard to get our work done.
