Program

Since 2011, Arab Film Days have showcased an incredible amount of exciting films produced in the region, and this year's program is no exception. The festival program consists of 19 carefully selected documentaries and fiction films that will stimulate hearts and minds. On March 2nd we will announce the complete festival program, and tickets to all screenings will be made available. Until then we will publish several film to give you a taste of this year's program.

For første gang inkluderer Arabiske filmdager et konkurranseprogram, som gir oss en ytterligere mulighet til å synliggjøre og belønne filmene og filmskaperne på festivalen. Konkurranseprogrammet består av 6 filmer, både fiksjons- og dokumentarfilmer, og som alle konkurrerer om Arabiske filmdager-prisen. Prisen består av 10.000 kr donert av Stiftelsen Festivalkontoret.

Here you will find fiction films by established directors as well as exciting newcomers. This section offers something for everyone, and ranges widely in geography, genre and themes. The common denominator is that the films will move and surprise you, and possibly challenge our usual notions of the Arab world.

Because reality often surpasses fiction! Our documentary section truly displays the range of what the documentary genre has to offer. Here you will find intimate, witty and surprising people portraits as well as provocative, political films. No film in this section will leave you feeling indifferent.
