Ethiopian Film Alazar Wins Top Prize at Dakar Court 2025

Ethiopian filmmaker Beza Hailu Lemma has won the Grand Prix at the 8th Dakar Court International Short Film Festival, held in Senegal, with his acclaimed short film Alazar. The 36-minute film was honored with the festival’s highest award during the closing ceremony at the Pathe Mermoz cinema in Dakar, where his work also earned the Prix Ababacar Samb Makharam for Best Directing.

Alazar, written and directed by Beza, follows the story of a rural Ethiopian community whose daily exodus is disrupted by the mysterious disappearance of a family patriarch from his grave. The narrative explores deep themes of faith, reason, and mysticism as the patriarch’s son, Tessema, rejects traditional religious explanations and seeks his own truth.
