The 9th edition of the Saudi Film Festival will focus on showcasing cinematic virtual reality (Cine-VR), an experience that allows viewers to look around in 360 degrees while listening to spatialized audio that is intended to further the illusion that viewers are actually in the virtual environment rather than viewing it on a two-dimensional screen.
