The emergence of cinemas and cinemas in Arab countries dates back to the beginning of the 20th century. This emergence stimulated the launch of many countries, notably Egypt, in the production of cinematographic films, then galleries spread widely in many cities of the Arab world and became part of the life of societies.

Over the last decades, these halls have gradually disappeared, towns that once housed dozens of halls, and today there is hardly a single hall that has remained active and has not closed its doors. How and why did the cinemas disappear in Arab cities? What is the relationship of societies to it today?

To address the subject, Tariq Hamdan will welcome each of: Hamid Shaker – director and writer (Iraq), May Odeh – filmmaker (Palestine), Sameh Al-Suraiti – artist (Egypt), Abdel Karim Qadri – film critic (Algeria), Yusra Chikhaoui – journalist (Tunisia)), Ghada Al Sheikh – Journalist (Jordan).
