Cairo International Film Festival
Cairo International Film Festival
With a cinematic tradition dating back as far as the 1930, Cairo is known as the 'Hollywood of the Middle East'. The Cairo International Film Festival began in 1976 and the 2008 edition will be screening films tackling issues on human rights and human dignity, with the festival commemorating the 60th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Another portion of the festival will be dedicated to the guests of honour, Spanish cinema, and African cinema will be represented in 'The Black Pearl' section, showcasing movies that dismiss the myths of Africa being about jungles, safari, famine, poverty, ethnic conflicts and disease.Venue: Various
