Returning for its seventh edition is the Catalan Arab and Mediterranean Film Festival, showcasing eight productions whose aim is to try and change the way many of us think of the Arab world.
With Lebanon as the featured country, both fiction and documentary works will be screened during the four days of the festival, half of them are being premiered in Catalunya for the first time.
Ever since the festival started, back in 2007, it has had the support of the collective Beirut DC, made up of film professionals and based in the Lebanese capital; this relationship is what led to the choice of Lebanon as guest country for the event this time, and the films to be shown present a reflection on the recent history of the Middle Eastern country.
