The Middle East International Film Festival (MEIFF) is a celebration of cinema, dedicated to showcasing international films from the Middle East, Bollywood and beyond to audiences in Abu Dhabi, and introducing filmmakers from around the world to the resources of the region.

MEIFF is committed to nurturing talent and relationships and providing opportunities to those looking to invest in the future of film. Abu Dhabi is the perfect place for this as it has always been a city famous for its ability to develop and grow in response to the global marketplace. The Festival hosts the Film Financing Circle, which has become a significant annual conference on the subject of international co-productions. The Festival also presents the prestigious Black Pearl Awards where filmmakers compete for Jury prizes in Fiction, Documentary and Short Film categories.
