Who we are
Cinema today stands out as one of the most influential arts due to its greater ability to shape public opinion and express ideas and issues, and film festivals constitute one aspect of this formation, crystallization, and demonstration of it to the people. However, most films that address humanitarian and value issues that are far from market consumption are excluded from participation or competition in major international film festivals.
Highlight the films that address humanitarian and value issues
Opportunity to strengthen connections between filmmakers in the world
First session will take place in Lebanon
From here came the idea of organizing a traveling international film festival that travels annually to a different country or destination and provides the opportunity to highlight, encourage and provide the aforementioned films as purposeful content on the one hand and artistically and technically successful on the other hand.
Horizon International Film Festival represents a meeting opportunity to exchange opinions, expertise and experience, and to strengthen connections and bonds between filmmakers in the world. Lebanon has been approved as a host country for the first session of the festival.
