Iraqi National Festival for Short Films
Category: Research, Training and Regional Events
Year: 2012
Status: Open

The Association of Contemporary Visual Arts in Iraq founded the Iraqi National Festival for Short Films in 2005 following the inspiration of Iraqi filmmakers and local producers all of whom are in dire need to visibility, events, screening spaces and wider audiences. The festival is therefore not only a cultural event but also an industry mechanism to cultivate a network of directors and production companies, grant-making organizations and donor foundations.
