Hiam Abbass ( _ar. هيام عباس; born 30 November 1960), also known as Hiam Abbas or Hiyam Abbas, is an Israeli Arab actress. She is known for her roles in the films "Satin Rouge", "Paradise Now" (2005), "The Syrian Bride" (2004), and "Free Zone" (2005). She had a small role in Steven Spielberg's "Munich", a film depicting the response to the Munich Massacre, where she also served as a dialect and acting consultant. Additionally, she directed two short films, "Le Pain" (2001), and "Le Danse éternelle" (2004).

Abbass was born in Nazareth, Israel and was raised in a traditional Muslim village by the Lebanese border. [ [http://www.jewishjournal.com/home/preview.php?id=14985 ‘Syrian Bride’ Weds Simple Tale, History | Israeli Film Festival | Jewish Journal ] ] She became famous in the international film scene through the film "Satin Rouge" (2002), by Raja Amari, a film about the self-discovery of a middle aged Tunisian widow with her own desires and sexuality. She also played a similar role in "The Syrian Bride", about a caged Druze woman eager to break out all sorts of barriers, performing a perfectly delivered and subtle performance with an inner struggle, which confronted today's religious and social dogmas and restrains.

In 2008, she played the mother of an illegal Syrian immigrant son in Thomas McCarthy's movie "The Visitor", and the mother of an Iraqi soldier in Abbas Fahdel's film "Dawn of the World".
