Artist and director Kazem Al-Zamil passes away after a rich artistic career

Writer, director, and artist Kazem Al-Zamil passed away Thursday morning at the age of 79, after a rich and distinguished artistic career. Al-Zamil began his artistic journey in the mid-1970s, during which he contributed numerous television and theatrical works. Throughout his career, he presented a large body of work, including famous television series and prominent popular and awareness-raising programs such as “Darb Al-Zalaq,” “Al-Warith,” “Min mafatih al-mahakim,” “Salamatik,” and “Al-Amn wa al-Muwatin,” in addition to directing and founding distinguished theatrical productions aimed at children and youth, given his academic specialization in children’s theater studies, before he stepped away from the arts after losing his sight. Al-Qabas, sharing in the grief, extends its deepest condolences to the family of the late Kazem Al-Zamil, praying that God grant him a place in the vast expanse of Paradise.
