Saudi from within

Ithra celebrates the brilliant work of Saudi Cinema by screening a collection of short documentary films directed and produced by Saudi filmmakers that show the people, the crafts and the landscapes of Saudi from within.

Badeel
A two-person voyage in a strange post-apocalyptic setting in 1993 where the sole means of surviving and adapting in this desolate and remote region while traveling to discover their home, is mirrors.

Fronds
The wicker and frond industry is the best known of the popular crafts and dates back to the civilizations of Mesopotamia, the Arabian Peninsula and other places where palm cultivation flourished, so it is in most vocabularies of the human environment - the frond house. This film tells the story of these families.

Al Rufea
In the wake of the river of time, love and nostalgia took root in Al-Hofuf and have developed in us, our family, our children and grandchildren.
