Egypt’s El Gouna Film Festival has appointed Andrew Mohsen as its new artistic director for the fest’s ninth edition, which will run Oct. 15-23.
Mohsen will replace Egyptian filmmaker Marianne Khoury, who stepped down as El Gouna chief in February after heading three editions. The prominent Arab event is held in a seaside resort near the tourist town of Hurghada, 250 miles south of Cairo.
