I still can't believe I'm here tonight.
Guys, give it up for your host one more time.
He's doing such a great job.
And everyone here tonight.
You all are so talented.
Everything about this place is amazing.
And this venue!
It's absolutely stunning.
Sorry, I'm really just taking all this in.
Where to begin?
Firstly, I want to thank the Academy.
But honestly, I couldn't have done it without everyone who worked on this film.
Annie, my wife, you're my rock, and I love
you.
But most importantly, I'd like to thank my
mother.
*Orchestra music plays*
Who died.
*Music cuts immediately*
It was really hard losing her this past year.
But she really inspired me and made me who
I am today.
I actually drove by the cemetery to see her
on the way here.
I was almost late...
What's with the traffic here?
How does anyone make it anywhere on time?
*Music starts playing again"
And let's give it up for all the women in this film!
*Music cuts*
We really need more women in this industry.
Which reminds me of a joke...
*Music plays*
And that joke is gun control in this country!
*Music cuts*
Am I right?
No but seriously, two guys walk into a bar -
*Music resumes playing*
- and they meet a diverse Oscar winner!
Did I mention I'm the first ever Egyptian
Oscar winner? #OscarsNotWhite
*Music continues to play*
Nothing? Really?
What about the refugees?!
Internet privacy!
Donald trump?!
*Music intensifies*
CLIMATE CHANGE!
*incoherent*
I'm so sorry about that everyone.
For the sake of time I think we should just
move on to the next category.
The winner for best documentary short is...
Fady Ghali.
*Mediocre Applause*
