THE PATHFINDER

The brainchild of MAD Solutions (see above), the ACC was created eight years ago as an umbrella presence at film events to advocate – and where necessary agitate - on behalf of Arab cinema and culture the world over. New co-production opportunities have been forged, new market doorways opened, and new talented career paths launched into orbit. This very magazine is one visible expression of that commitment, and so too are all the new avenues that are opening for Arab projects and filmmakers in countries where not so long ago, they were invisible.
