RIYADH: Saudi women film students will have access to funding and industry support after one of the Kingdom’s pioneering cinematic schools renewed its partnership with the Red Sea Film Foundation.
The agreement with Effat University’s Cinematic Arts School aims to empower Saudi women filmmakers through financial and professional support.
It was signed during the Red Sea International Film Festival in Jeddah, which is overseen by the foundation.
The partnership offers direct financing from the foundation’s Red Sea Fund and mentoring through the stages of selected student film projects.
The foundation said the support model advances both the artistic quality of the films and the professional growth of the filmmakers.
