@ Riverside Parramatta

Free$15 - $20 + bf ($65 - $85 for multi-film Marathon Package)

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 Hala Khalil, the film Nawara is an exploration of class war and social structures in Eygpt. The film follows Nawara, who crosses the divide between the lower class and upper in her daily life as a housekeeper, juxtaposing the opulence of her employers with the realities of her own home life.
