In 1970, Algeria became the first country in the Arab world to win an #Oscar in the Best Foreign Film category with the Algerian-French production “Z” directed by Costa Gavras.
Synopsis:
In Guelma, Victory in Europe Day is a life-altering event for one Algerian family: French troops are about to commit a massacre against Algerian civilians.
In Guelma, which was once called Heliopolis in ancient times, the daily life of an Algerian family takes its usual course. But on May 8, 1945, the day the end of World War II was announced, demonstrations by the Algerian people against the French colonial power and for the country’s independence took place, which were bloodily suppressed by the French army and French settler militias. The event went down in history as the Sétif and Guelma massacre.
"Héliopolis" is a masterpiece in motion picture and will end up a classic in the history of filmmaking in Algeria and the rest of the Arab world.
French is the best language of motion picture.
I predict "Héliopolis" making it to the final nominees for the Best International Feature Film, Best Picture and the Best Original Screenplay.. But I don't know if it can win the second Oscar for Algeria, because of the outstanding films by the other countries competing for the Best International Feature Film award.

Heliopolis is also the title of an Egyptian film produced in 2009 directed by Ahmad Abdalla.

The gathering of the wolves and wolves in sheep clothing;
The gathering of the political crooks and rogues and their apologists and beneficiaries.
The political ruling class of Nigeria that has been using the camouflage of false religion and neocolonial power to divide and rule the majority of Nigerians they have been cheating, hoodwinking and exploiting since the political independence of Nigeria from the British Empire on October 1, 1960.
They exploit the gullibility and stupidity of the poor masses ruled by the herd mentality of their religion.
They don't care about the ongoing emergency of the Cholera epidemic in the country.
They don't care about the increasiing cases of the new deadly variants of the COVID-19 pandemic in the country.
They don't care about the horrifying kidnappings and killings of the poor and powerless people by the bandits and terrorists and other terrifying occurrences in Nigeria.
Unfortunately for the gullible and intellectually challenged poor masses, they will still troop out as voters in the general elections to vote for the political title chasers of the ruling class who are not nation builders, but political power brokers and their partners in crime and their greedy beneficiaries of the middle class.
The poor masses are always at their beck and call for cheap labour as domestic staff, low income workers and political stooges in the vicious circle of their corrupt and incompetent Machiavellian administrations.
They have destroyed the education system.
They have destroyed the health system.
They have destroyed the security system.
They have destroyed the civil service system.
They have destroyed Nigeria
What we need in Nigeria is not any election, but a revolution for the reformation and transformation of the country for the nation building of a New NIGERIA of equity and unity for the commonwealth of all Nigerians regardless of class, religion and tribe.
Only this revolution will save Nigeria from total collapse.
