Opening of the Academy of Arts and the Zarifa Film Festival
The Zarifa Film Festival is an exciting new addition to our cultural landscape, celebrating artistic expression through the powerful medium of cinema. This inaugural event honors creativity and innovation in filmmaking. Join us as we embark on a journey to discover and elevate the voices of filmmakers, while connecting with audiences who are passionate about storytelling.
A Home for Films That Feel, Challenge, and Inspire
The Zarifa Film Festival is built around one belief:
cinema matters when it reaches the heart and provokes reflection.
Our first edition invites filmmakers who dare to tell stories with emotional depth, artistic integrity, and a sincere human voice.
This is a space for films that move us, confront us, and remind us why storytelling still matters.
Zarifa is not a show — it’s an encounter.
A meeting point between creators and audiences who seek meaning, beauty, and courage in cinema.
Here, we honor films that inspire, films that stay, and films that carry a spirit beyond entertainment.
Let the celebration begin.
