This is just an initial post to announce that tickets are up and that you can start buying 3 months ahead of time. I know, it’s insane. But I really believe in these films and I hope that we can rally the amazing community of filmmakers here in NY to check out these films and consider the potential of recognition from the Academy. I know we all know someone, who knows someone. Cobble Hill is truly the new Beverly Hills somehow and I hope to use that advantage to platform these amazing films from the Arab world. I’m grateful that we got to opportunity to do so over the last 2 years. Let’s finish out strong and make sure that we use this platform to help these films get to where they deserve to thrive. Arab film is having its own renaissance right now, and I just want to make sure you don’t miss out. There will be an after party for this event to celebrate the last 3 years of work we have all contributed to. Thank you for helping me build this ecosystem. We will be back with more programming. Again, link in bio • $20 ticket via @tzkrti • 12/9 @ 7:30 PM All Proceeds go to @thesameerproject share with your filmmaker friends, would love for them to consider these beautiful films Love you all
