CELEBRATION OF CINEMA: In a historic first, the UAE is going to host a one day film showcase, screening movies directed by Emirati and Israeli filmmakers. The Al Qattara Cinema film festival, which will be a virtual screening event on January 28, is truly a celebration of creative talent, while drawing attention to the cultural relations between the two communities and their respective arts sectors. This landmark moment is surely the first of many more such events to be held in the near future, but for the humble audience, this is truly a celebration of cinema.
