Cinema Akil is bringing its unique brand of independent arthouse cinema to Bahrain for the first time with a special pop-up at the Muharraq Nights Festival. The event, organized by the Bahrain Ministry of Culture, will showcase a selection of award-winning films from December 19 to 23, 2024. Set against the backdrop of the historic Pearling Path, a UNESCO World Heritage site, the pop-up will feature compelling narratives such as the Jordanian drama “Inshallah A Boy,” Wim Wenders’ Japanese film “Perfect Days,” and Hayao Miyazaki’s animated masterpiece “The Boy and the Heron.” Additionally, audiences can enjoy Saudi tale “Mandoob” and Lina Soualem’s documentary “Bye Bye Tiberias.” Cinema Akil’s Founder, Butheina Kazim, expressed excitement about the opportunity to share independent cinema with a new audience in Bahrain and praised the collaboration with the Ministry of Culture. This initiative marks a significant milestone for Cinema Akil as it expands its reach in the GCC and the region through pop-up events.
