Organised by the European Union Delegation to the UAE in collaboration with the Cultural Foundation in Abu Dhabi, the festival not only celebrates cinematic excellence but also underscores the power of storytelling in bridging cultures.
In addition to film screenings, the festival will host a series of panel discussions, providing a unique platform for dialogue and exchange between European and Emirati creatives. These sessions aim to foster deeper collaboration and cultural understanding, further cementing the festival’s role as a hub for international artistic engagement.
