Middle East International Film Festival's Notes
About MEIFF 2009
Highlights of MEIFF’s third edition will include Official Competitions for Narrative Features, Documentary Features, Shorts and Student Films. Cash prizes of over $1 million are to be awarded.
Once again this year, MEIFF’s star-studded Gala presentations will unveil some of the fall season’s most eagerly-awaited new films in the resplendent theatre of the magnificent Emirates Palace Hotel.
The Festival will continue to give special attention to films on environmental concerns, a key element in Abu Dhabi’s cultural legacy. Highlights of other international film festivals will be presented, and there will be at least two retrospective sections. The festival will feature a new emphasis on the often overlooked role of film composers and film music. It will also offer a new series of master classes by some of the film world’s most accomplished creators, and present a restored silent film with live musical accompaniment.
