      Still from Challatt Tunes by Kaouther Ben Hania.

      San Sebastian International Film Festival will collaborate with Dubai International Film Festival (DIFF) offering directors a career changing opportunity through the Cinema in Motion initiative.

      This industry activity aims to assist the conclusion of feature films – which are at the end of their filming or in post-production stage – made by filmmakers from the Maghreb, developing Arab countries and the African continent.

      The successful nominee will receive USD 6,500 towards the post production costs of an Arab film. In addition to the monetary prize, the winning projects director will be invited to attend the Dubai Film Market (DFM) during the upcoming DIFF where they will be given the opportunity to network within the industry. An assigned personal consultant from DFM will coordinate meetings, explore funding prospects and facilitate networking opportunities for the nominee, also.

      Four films have been chosen to take part in the San Sebastian International Film Festival’s 8th Cinema in Motion event, on 24 September; Al Khouroug Lel Nahar by Hala Lotfy from Egypt, Challatt Tunes by Kaouther Ben Hania from Tunisia, Le Veau d’or by Hassan Legzouli from Morocco, and Moug by Ahmed Nour from Egypt/Morocco. Following the showcase the selected films’ directors and/or producers will have an opportunity to defend their projects to accredited film industry professionals to compete for various forms of post-production support.

      In previous years, awards have been granted to The Last Friday, by Jordanian-born Yahya Alabdallah, and Sur la Planche, by French-Moroccan, Leïla Kilani.

      Artistic director of DIFF, Masoud Amralla Al Ali, said: “Developing opportunities to encourage film production and realise the potential of regional talent is a core objective of DIFF. Our participation in Cinema in Motion helps further realise this objective. The prize offered to the winning filmmaker will not only assist in helping them complete their current project and hopefully find additional partners who can help complete and distribute the film at DFM, but also expand their network within the film industry and cultivate long-term relationships for future projects”.
