Move over, Marvel—Egyptian director Ahmed Alaa is pitching a new kind of cinematic universe, powered by BRICS collaboration! 🚀 The 25-year-old filmmaker, part of Gen Z’s creative vanguard, shared his vision during the 17th BRICS Summit in Rio de Janeiro, where young leaders reimagined global partnerships.
Lights, Camera, Cross-Culture Action
Ahmed wants to team up with creators from India’s Bollywood, China’s booming film industry, Brazil’s vibrant cinema scene, and beyond. “Imagine blending ancient myths with futuristic tech,” he told CGTN, “BRICS isn’t just about economics—it’s a storytelling goldmine.” 🎥✨
Beyond the Silver Screen
The director also proposed a BRICS cultural exchange hub to fund co-productions and mentor young talent. Think film labs, streaming partnerships, and maybe even a BRICS film festival? 🎞️ “Art breaks barriers better than any policy,” he argued.
Why BRICS?
With the bloc’s expansion to include new members, Ahmed sees untapped potential: “We’re 45% of the world’s population—our stories deserve IMAX-scale reach.” From K-drama fans to anime lovers, could this be the key to the next global streaming obsession? 📱💡
