The 2nd edition of the Red Sea International Film Festival, scheduled between December 1 and 10, has unveiled seven movies that will be part of this year’s “Red Sea: Treasures” category.

Antoine Khalifeh, Director of Arab Programs & Film Classics of the RedSeaIFF said: “Red Sea: Treasures is a celebration of some of the most iconic and widely acclaimed cinematic storytelling ever to grace the screen. As part of this program committed to preserving timeless films from the history of international cinema, and through the Red Sea Film Festival Foundation, we have been able to restore two Egyptian classics for a new generation of audiences. This comes from our belief in the importance of cinema heritage in inspiring promising filmmakers, and entertaining cinema aficionados.”
