Red Sea International Film Festival will run from November 11 to 20 in Jeddah Old Town<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\n

Saudi Arabia\u2019s Red Sea International Film Festival (RSIFF) has announced Edouard Waintrop as its Artistic Director, ahead of its inaugural edition in November 2021.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Earlier, Waintrop served as the former Artistic Director of the Directors\u2019 Fortnight (2011 \u2013 2018), an independent programme running parallel to the Cannes Film Festival. He joins the RSIFF after two years as president of a commission helping and financing the development of feature films, as part of the Centre national du Cin\u00e9ma, Paris, and as the programmer of the international section at the Bordeaux International Independent Film Festival.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cIt is a great privilege and honour to be leading the Red Sea International Film Festival. This new and great Festival will celebrate all aspects of cinema, from the creatives telling stories to the technical craftspeople putting imaginative ideas onto the big screen, celebrating filmmaking as force for positive change. The Festival is set to reflect that metamorphosis and to be the place for the leaders and visionaries of Arab cinema, both established and emerging, to meet, celebrate successes, and look forward to a bright future,\u201d Waintrop said in a statement.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Other members joining the team include the award-winning writer\/director and former Washington Post correspondent Faizah Ambah who will serve as the Special Programme Manager.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

They will join a team of programmers from across the world, including film critic Kaleem Aftab (Director of International Programming), Antoine Khalife (Director of Arab Programmes & Film Classics), and Mohyee Qari (Programme Manager).<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n

New names joining the programming team also include Marta Balaga, Alice Kharoubi, Leigh Singer, Carmen Thompson, Badih Massaad, and Kim Young-woo as programming consultants. Julie Bergeron returns to the RSIFF as Red Sea Souk Consultant, moving from her previous role as Head of Red Sea Souk. Bergeron has been head of industry programmes at the Cannes March\u00e9 du Film as well as the project manager of its Ventana Sur Latin American offshoot.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The November 2021 festival is led by a team of Saudi and international curators, film specialists, and industry veterans, including Managing Director Shivani Pandya, and Jumana Zahid, who heads the Red Sea Lodge, the Foundation\u2019s incubator for Saudi and Arab filmmakers, now in its second edition.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Pandya used to be the managing director of the now defunct Dubai International Film Festival that ran from 2004 until 2015. In 2018, it was said the film festival will take place every two years but has yet to return.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

The Red Sea Souk, the Festival\u2019s industry platform for distributors, sales agents, and producers, is helmed by Zain Zedan (Industry\/Souk Manager). The operations team is led by Ibrahim Modir (Head of Shared Services).<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

RSIFF will be held from November 11 to 20 in Jeddah Old Town, Saudi Arabia. Under the theme of \u2018Metamorphosis\u2019, it celebrates film as a force for positive change and reflects on the local context, as well as the blossoming Middle East and North African film scenes.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
