Dubai International Film Festival
[edit]DIFF is listed under defunct festivals, but with no citations. I have just been editing that article, and found no evidence to confirm permanent cancellation, although it was announced in 2018 that it would only run biennially. Their website appears to be defunct, but IMDb seems to show that there were awards given in 2021 and 2022 (possibly incorrectly assigned?). Does anyone have any further info on this?

Lack of information on Arab women in Film in the 1930s
[edit]This article page does not represent any female Arab filmmakers.
Below is a reference provided.
Pursuing a film career was risky in the 1930s, especially for women, due to their traditional domestic roles at the time. Nonetheless, one of the trailblazing female pioneers in Egyptian cinema, Bahiga Hafez, boldly assumed a leading role in shaping the emerging film industry as a producer, director, and composer. The peril of her work is almost (but never entirely) offset by the remarkable achievement of her debut film, Al-Dahaia (The Victims, Egypt, 1932).
