In 2024, we presented our 18th annual Twin Cities Arab Film Festival with special screenings and programming across the Twin Cities. The weekend included a post-screening discussions with actors and filmmakers and a free outdoor screening under the Third Avenue Bridge. The 2024 festival featured 35 films, more than two-thirds of which were directed by women. An offshoot of the festival, Mizna's Tulsa Arab Film Fest, continued for its fourth year. The Mizna Film Series is a quarterly selection of programs marking our first venture into year-round curated film programming. Our 2024 Mizna Film Series highlighted archival works directed by women. |
