The 13th annual Arab Film Festival Australia (AFFA) returns in 2016 with a fusion of contemporary and traditional works in Arab cinema from Australia, Lebanon, Egypt, Iraq, Palestine, Syria, Qatar and Saudi Arabia.
Presenting seven features and one short film, the festival kicks off in Sydney from 21 to 24 July.
Directed by Halkawt Mustafa, El Clasico is another traditional love story with a modern twist. A Kurdish dwarf believes presenting soccer player Christian Renaldo with a pair of handmade shoes will earn him respect and the blessings from the father of his would be bride. Filled with uniquely abstract characters, El Clasico is a road movie of self-discovery and adventure, showing how love and hope transcend boundaries and boarders.
