The seventh edition of the Saudi Film Festival just took place and it was really well-received amongst film enthusiasts, both locally and abroad.

The latest edition of Saudi Film Festival also highlighted the growth of Saudi films to the international film world

The theme was Desert Cinema and focused on highlighting the desert aesthetics and culture of the region.

 

The Saudi Film Festival highlights desert cinema in an interactive artwork inspired by the Tuwaiq mountains, in addition to a book that will be soon published titled Cinema, the Desert and its Guide. It is going to include a lot of research, articles, and studies.

There were also three desert-themed seminars presented on desert literature, poems, culture and films that were shot in deserts.

The festival was held at the state-of-the-art King Abdul Aziz Center for World Culture (Ithra) and featured 57 films, 36 of which were produced by Saudi filmmakers and 21 from across the GCC.
