The Swedish film “The Nile Hilton Incident” won the Nordic nation’s equivalent of an Oscar, bagging a Guldbaggen for film of the year, according to Egyptian Streets. The film is directed by Tarik Saleh and is set in Cairo around the events of 2011. The film also picked up best actor honors for lead Fares Fares, best cinematography, best costume and best sound, capping a strong run since debuting at the Sundance Film Festival last year. Saleh had wanted to shoot the film in Cairo, but was denied permits and so moved production to Morocco.
