Local girl Weaam Williams is just bagging win after win!
Her latest achievement comes after winning Best Actress in a Short Film at the West Europe International Film Festival (Brussels Edition), for her role in Two Hues, which she also wrote and co-directed.
This is her fourth international award.
Lekker man, meisie!
Two Hues is a short psychological drama and follows the story of a woman with bipolar who also suffers from post-traumatic stress disorder, and how she deals with the patriarchal system in her family and workplace.
Williams shared the exciting news on social media following the announcement on Saturday of her award.
She wrote: “Oh my word!!!! After all of the self-doubt, this just happened! I won Best Lead Actress in a short film, for Two Hues at the prestigious West Europe International Film Festival, with BAFTA Academy Juror on their Jury!
“I am overwhelmed, thrilled, grateful, honoured, fulfilled and so much more.
“It really proves that embracing one’s fears as an artist is the best way to go.”
