CAIRO - 5 October 2020: El Gouna Film Festival announced that CineGouna Platform (CGP) is now accepting accreditation requests for its 4th edition.

 

Requests will be accepted from professionals working in the film industry, film companies, film institutions, and cultural organizations.

As a support hub for creative minds and markets, and an important element of El Gouna Film Festival, CineGouna Platform is an industry-oriented event created to promote and empower Arab filmmakers on their quest to acquire artistic and financial support.

Accredited industry professionals will receive access to film screenings, CineGouna SpringBoard pitch sessions and awards ceremonies, in addition to CineGouna Bridge master classes, panel discussions and workshops led by international and regional industry leaders.

Applications can be submitted on the official festival website: www.elgounafilmfestival.com.

CineGouna Platform is an industry-oriented event created to support and empower Egyptian and Arab filmmakers, helping them find artistic and financial support. CineGouna Platform presents the CineGouna SpringBoard and the CineGouna Bridge programs that provide opportunities for sharing and learning.

 

Under the theme The Culture of Dreams, GFF is unveiled the official posters designed for its upcoming 4th edition.  

 

El Gouna, the anchor of the festival, rolls out the red carpet this year for its spectacular and visionary landmark edifice, theGouna Conference and Culture Center (GCCC).

The poster is indeed inspired by the design of the Gouna Conference and Culture Center, which features an elegant series of barrel vaults enclosing the auditorium with a shaded perimeter layer where the inside and outside merge, creating an atmosphere of transcendent inspiration.

For this edition, the choice of visuals in the posters represent the wide spectrum of voices and talents that bring the MENA region dreams to life in the form of inspired artistic works. 

In these uncertain times, GFF has risen to the challenges and reimagined its 4th edition to safeguard the health of all participants, adapt its venues and procedures to the new global reality, and still inspire and encourage artists to stay dreaming.

 

The festival is set to take place in the Red Sea town of El Gouna from October 23 to 31, 2020, while the activities of CineGouna Platform (CGP)—the industry arm of the festival—will be held from October 25 to 29, 2020.
