To our Tropfest Arabia community
Thank you for reaching out to us over the past few weeks. We are now confirming that Tropfest Arabia 2014 has been postponed while we look for a new partner to host the Middle Eastern edition of the world’s largest short film festival.
If you have been making a film for entry, please contact our global team via [email protected] as you can be considered for entry into Tropfest Australia (Note: any filmmaker accepted as a Finalist for Tropfest Australia will be flown to Sydney for the event courtesy of Tropfest).
John Polson, Festival Founder & Director, says Tropfest Arabia forms part of Tropfest’s global mission to provide the largest possible platform for filmmakers, and new and expanded audiences for their work.
“The stories we see emerge from this region are incredibly important, and we believe it is absolutely vital that there is a platform like Tropfest to support these storytellers,” Polson said. “Recent changes at twofour54 have unfortunately meant the fit with that organisation is no longer right. We will seek a new and exciting partner to help us bring this event to life in 2015 and beyond.”
We’ll keep you updated with plans for Tropfest Arabia 2015. All updates will be shared on the website and here on the page as well.
Until then, keep watching, making and celebrating short film!
