Cairo International Film Festival Participates in the "Belt and Road" Week in Shanghai for the Seventh Consecutive Year
Ali abo deshish As part of its ongoing efforts to strengthen cinematic cooperation with countries worldwide, the Cairo International Film Festival (CIFF) took part in the "Belt and Road" Week, held in Shanghai, China, from June 18 to 21, within the framework of the 27th Shanghai International Film Festival. This marks the seventh consecutive year that CIFF participates in the Belt and Road Film Festival Alliance, an initiative launched by the Shanghai International Film Festival in 2018. The alliance currently brings together over 55 film institutions and festivals from 48 countries, including Egypt, China, Portugal, Chile, Colombia, Indonesia, Hungary, the Netherlands, and Mongolia. Representing CIFF at the event was film critic Mohamed Tarek, the Festival's Artistic Director, who participated in the alliance's official meetings. The discussions focused on mechanisms to enhance cooperation between member festivals, promote the exchange of films, and organize cross-border cultural and cinematic events. These efforts aim to increase the international visibility of Arab cinema and create new opportunities for filmmakers from alliance member states. Commenting on the participation, Mohamed Tarek said: "The Cairo International Film Festival's involvement in the Belt and Road Week is an essential part of our strategy to open new markets for Egyptian and Arab cinema and to build stronger ties with major international festivals. Our meetings with the Shanghai International Film Festival management led to tangible steps toward enhancing cooperation, including facilitating the participation of Chinese films and special screenings at CIFF, as well as supporting Arab films' access to Asian markets, particularly China, which represents a promising and dynamic opportunity for Arab cinema." The Belt and Road Week witnessed the participation of over 40 filmmakers and producers from more than 20 countries, along with a series of specialized forums and professional sessions focused on developing the film industry, exchanging expertise, and strengthening cultural integration among alliance members. It is worth noting that the Cairo International Film Festival, founded in 1976, is one of the oldest and most prestigious film festivals in the Arab world and Africa. It remains the only festival in the region accredited as a Category "A" festival by the International Federation of Film Producers Associations (FIAPF). CIFF continues to serve as a prominent platform for showcasing outstanding cinematic works from around the globe and fostering cultural dialogue between nations. read more New Tourism Route To Launch in Old Cairo Ahmed El Sakka-Led Play 'Sayidati Al Jamila' to Be Staged in KSA on Dec. 6 Mandy Moore Joins Season 2 of "Dr. Death" Anthology Series Don't Miss These Movies at 44th Cairo Int'l Film Festival Today Amr Diab to Headline KSA's MDLBEAST Soundstorm 2022 Festival Arts & Culture Mai Omar Stuns in Latest Instagram Photos Arts & Culture "The Flash" to End with Season 9 Arts & Culture Ministry of Culture Organizes four day Children's Film Festival Arts & Culture Canadian PM wishes Muslims Eid-al-Adha News Israeli-Linked Hadassah Clinic in Moscow Treats Wounded Iranian IRGC Fighters News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier Sports Former Al Zamalek Player Ibrahim Shika Passes away after Long Battle with Cancer Videos & Features Tragedy Overshadows MC Alger Championship Celebration: One Fan Dead, 11 Injured After Stadium Fall Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Business Fear & Greed Index Plummets to Lowest Level Ever Recorded amid Global Trade War News Flights suspended at Port Sudan Airport after Drone Attacks News "Tensions Escalate: Iran Probes Allegations of Indian Tech Collaboration with Israeli Intelligence" Videos & Features Video: Trending Lifestyle TikToker Valeria Márquez Shot Dead during Live Stream Technology 50-Year Soviet Spacecraft 'Kosmos 482' Crashes into Indian Ocean
