The stadiums have their own heroes and take off their stars. The round has its own magic, and on the silver screen there is a brilliance that steals people into distant worlds. It is amazing that some people may ask: what is the connection between cinema and football, so you can compare them. Nevertheless, there are many aspects of youth, and the evidence is that many actors began their journey on the field before standing in front of the camera; Among them -Nour al -sharif, Ahmed al -Saka, Zafar al -Abidin and Ahmed Fahmi from the Arab world, as well as many names from Hollywood.
Since cinema and football are two parallel worlds that are found with their popularity and unexpected end, this required the distribution of the meeting, which provides distances between these two worlds, within the framework of the “International Film Festival in Ampan”.
At the headquarters of the royal Jordanian cinema, Prince Ali bin Al Hussain spoke about his experience, which combines sport and cinema, as he also leads the Jordan football association. This meeting, which he gathered with fans of cinema and balls, has an exact time, since the day after Jordan’s football team was finished with qualifications for the 2026 World Cup.
Prince Ali was not the only speaker, since the captain of the Jordanian national team Ehosan Haddad, and the two directors of Leyite Al -Majali and the Vidad Shafaf joined him, and the session was modified by the producer Alaa al -Saada.
“We are also proud of our films that reach the world, and we also raise our heads with our players when they achieve achievements,” said Prince Ali. More than the similarity between the two regions, he mentioned as a movie, like football, is criticized: “The more criticism, the better.”
The prince also recalled the Jordanian film “Captain Abu Rad”, which received a reward for spectators at the Sandanz International Film Festival in 2008, he was an example of Jordanian directors who they can get to the world, and it is also applicable to football. ”
As for the captain of the Jordanian national team, the headlight is a “cinematic feeling” compared to the victory, stopping when the football player looks like an actor, as an example for a developing generation.
“If I wrote a script about the team’s travel to the World Cup, it would not be more cinematic and influential than on Earth.” Thus, director Leyite al -Majali summed up the commitment to the world of cinema and football. He explained that just as the foundation of each film is history and characters, and, as in every story of its signs and slopes, as well as in matches, where the joy of victory with the pain of disappointment and injuries are parallel.
Al -Majali, who is busy documenting the journey of the Jordanian national team to the World Cup at the World Cup through the film, which is still preparation, added that “Cinema and Football are also found that they unite people and move their feelings from the greatest joy to sadness.”
Perhaps the general conviction that the films that turn to the world of football are a novel or a documentary, neither attractive, nor feelings. But this is inaccurate faith. This type of film is full of human feelings, especially those documentaries where the audience carefully studies without beauty, all that players and coaches are held during, before and after matches.
This applies to the film “17”, director Vidad Shafaf, who in 2017 recorded the training of the Jordanian women’s team for the World Cup under the age of 17. The participants interacted with the video, which was shown from the film, recalling the beautiful era in the history of Jordanian football, and asked for more achievements, especially in the hands of the team that went to the World Cup in America next year.
“The world is watching us through cinema and football,” – prisoned by Prince Ali, his words expanding the dream window: “It is impossible for the day to come when the Jordanians raise the World Cup and even Oscar.”
