For the 36 consecutive year, the European Union is pleased to invite you to the European Film Festival in Jordan. The Festival kicks off on 13 September with an invitation-only opening night at the Royal Film Commission, and continues from 14 to 30 September at the Royal Film Commission, presenting an unforgettable two-week cinematographic journey.
This year’s Festival showcases more than 25 European and Jordanian films with free screenings in Amman and throughout the country, along with workshops, and panel discussions, led by industry experts and renowned filmmakers.
We also invite all Jordanian young and aspiring filmmakers to compete again in the annual Mobile Film Competition which is part of this Festival. The Festival will conclude with an award ceremony and we hope that the Jordanian youth will once again impress us with its skills and creativity.
As part of our Film Festival, a special event will be organised on 27 September with European filmmakers who have authored a portray of Gaza, to pay tribute to resilience and highlight how filmmaking can contribute to a culture of peace.
As in previous years, the Festival was made possible thanks to the personal support of H.R.H Princess Rym Ali. All our gratitude goes to her, our host the Royal Film Commission, the Great Amman Municipality, the SAE institute, Loyac volunteers and Orange Jordan.
