Arab Film Festival 2012
The best of Arab cinema comes to Sydney.
Overview
Established back in 2001 the Arab Film Festival attempts to celebrate and educate about the complex and diverse nature of Arab-speaking people. Using the medium of film the festival aims to address the misconceptions that exist in regard to Arab people and their customs throughout the world, through support of freedom, expression and information.
This year the Arab Film Festival program will feature local and international filmmakers like Narjiss Nejjar of Morocco, Moustafa Zakaria of Egypt and Yahya Alabdallah of Libya, with films like The Last Friday, the story of one man's escape from isolation and restriction, No More Fear, a raw and passionate documentary telling the stories of Tunisian voluntaries, and Habibi, a story of forbidden love, passion and poetry.
Still from film Habibi.
