6 years agoI gotta say I am disappointed with their Arab Film Festival choices. It seems like the movies are all about the same topic.. which is the Palestinian Occupation. Now with all my respect to that, but they truly need more diversity in the movies that they choose to present during the Arab Film Festival. They need movies that talk about different subjects and they need to encourage the American-Arab film makers who make films that are not related to the Palestinian topic. There are many talented Arab-American film makers with beautiful work and they need to be given a chance to present their work. I really do hope to see some change soon.
