The ‘Must See Film Challenge’ fosters vibrant independent filmmakers in the Arab region and gives an opportunity for every aspiring filmmaker to get noticed by the crowd. The challenge gathers movies from all genres and in all forms from around the Arab World that people won’t find anywhere else.
The ‘Must See Film Challenge’ seeks untold stories and unspoken voices from horrors to documentaries to adventures to comedies. And in order to give a push for these aspiring filmmakers, Zoomaal in partnership with Mideast Creatives are putting $20,000 in matched funding to support 36 filmmakers making their ideas a reality.
In an earlier challenge, the “Women Pioneers Challenge”, Zoomaal and Mideast Creatives allocated $20,000 in matched funding to support aspiring women in the Arab world. Out of 25 projects, 13 projects reached their target amount and collected a total amount of $183,000, which is 9x the original amount put in matched funding.
