DUBAI // A record 45 productions by UAE filmmakers will be screened at the Gulf Film Festival – well up on last year’s total of 36.
More Emirati films than ever before – 22, up from 13 last year – have been entered for the main competition, rather than the student section.
One notable work is The Caller, a UAE-Puerto Rico-UK collaboration produced by Amina Dasmal, an Emirati who lives in London.
The mystery thriller, directed by Matthew Parkhill, tells the story of a divorcee, played by Rachelle Lefevre, who receives phone calls from a woman who says she is in the past, and who plots revenge when she finds herself being ignored.
