AMP: Artists' Meeting Place and Resource Collective

Filmmakers from Africa, Asia and the Arab world are invited by the Dubai International Film Festival (DIFF) to submit their projects for consideration for the Muhr Arab Awards and the Muhr AsiaAfrica Awards, in their fourth and second year, respectively.

The competitions feature generous cash prizes in the categories of Feature, Documentary and Short films, and have generated publicity for emerging and established filmmakers from across the Arab world and beyond.

Films eligible for both competitions must be directed by an Arab, Asian or African filmmaker and the subject and storyline of the film must be centered around the Arab, Asian or African world and/or history and culture for the respective competitions.

The Dubai International Film Festival will take place from December 9 to 16, 2009.
