      The coveted Muhr Awards were presented by His Highness Sheikh Mansoor bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum to dozens of the Arab world’s best filmmakers in the Muhr Arab categories as well as their counterparts from Asia and Africa, comprising the most competitive and diverse competition since the inception of the awards in 2006 (Arab) and […]

      Muhr Awards winners at the awards ceremony.

      The coveted Muhr Awards were presented by His Highness Sheikh Mansoor bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum to dozens of the Arab world’s best filmmakers in the Muhr Arab categories as well as their counterparts from Asia and Africa, comprising the most competitive and diverse competition since the inception of the awards in 2006 (Arab) and 2007 (AsiaAfrica). Both first-time directors and cinema legends such as Syrian director Mohamed Malas and Egyptian filmmaker Mohamed Khan entered new films this year, beating hundreds of other entrants to be shortlisted.

      Abdulhamid Juma, DIFF Chairman, reflected on the landmark decennial edition: “The sense of community this year was palpable. After ten years, we are seeing recurrent visitors, both film professionals and cinema lovers, from the region and beyond. This year we celebrated the gains that have been made in Arab cinema in the past decade, the result of years of work from our team to discover, nurture and promote talent from the Arab world.”

      “There is a feeling that Arab cinema has ‘arrived,’ with increasing numbers of Arab films on the world stage, winning awards at the most prestigious festivals, and gaining currency even with audiences who have never visited the region. The Muhr Awards represents a strong community of artistic peers who are working together in a common project of celebrating and elevating the standard of cinema in emerging markets, and it is remarkable for DIFF to be at the centre of that phenomenon.”

      Masoud Amralla Al Ali, DIFF’s Artistic Director, said: “The international film professionals we host at DIFF, all of whom can boast of long and distinguished careers, are continuously impressed by the inventiveness and originality of the films we feature here. Most of our filmmakers operate outside the Hollywood and Bollywood systems, which means that they are free to experiment and take creative risks. We at DIFF are grateful to be able to support these artists financially so that they continue to show the world what they can do.”
