The Palestinian version of the Ammar festival will kick off in Gaza on January 11, 2020 commemorating Iranian hero martyr General Qassem Soleimani.
The Ammar Popular Film Festival goes against the promotion of “individualism and extreme enjoyment without caring about the society's troubles and other humans’ suppression,” the event’s official website reads.
The festival aims “to raise real awareness and responsibility among the general public,” the website adds, noting that the event’s mission is to create an atmosphere in which independent filmmakers and thinkers can gather together.
The 10th edition of the festival kicked off in Tehran on January 1 and will come to an end on January 9.
