 What did the filmmaker Isaiah say?

Isaiah Tadesse Kebbed, who was nominated for the seventh Guma Award for short film, won. After the victory, Isaiah gave a short speech in Tigrinya. After I said, "Thank you," I could not rejoice in this award.
When my mother's tears are wiped away, I will see her return to her former glory," he said.
Reflecting current affairs, political views, and differences of opinion in such forums is not new. At various international awards, such as Oscar and Grammy, not only the winners but also the hosts of the program express their views and criticisms on important topics.
