DUBAI: This month, Netflix released a new catalogue of 44 movies by Arab directors, including Youssef Chahine, Youssry Nasrallah, Nadine Labaki and many more, adding Arab productions on the international radar.
Now, American streaming platform Telescope Films is also giving Middle Eastern movies a global appeal by partnering with the Arab Cinema Centre, a platform by regional distribution company Mad Solutions.
The site guides its viewers to where a specific film is available and which platforms stream it. Telescope Films also includes the synopsis, trailer and feedback from critics for each production.
The platform categorizes its fiction movies, documentaries and short films under “Box Office Hits,” “Oscar Submissions” and “Short and Straight to the Point.”
“The Arab world has produced some of the great masters of world cinema, as well as some of the most exciting directors working today,” said founder and chief executive of Telescope Film, Justine Barda, in a released statement. “We believe their work should be better known in the US and want to help make that happen.”
