Cinema Akil
Film screenings at Cinema Akil, presented by Fujifilm, in partnership with Alserkal Avenue and communications partner Soul Communications.
Cinema Akil proudly presents the 4th Arab Cinema Week 2025—a curated journey through the new wave of Arab storytelling. We go through different genres of films, places, gazes and stories to give a collage of what our rich and diverse region looks like.
We open with Three, a psychological horror directed by Nayla Al Khaja, set between the UAE and Thailand. The film follows a mother who turns to ancient rituals to save her son from a mysterious breakdown—blending tradition, faith, and the supernatural.
