The most awaited festival, the annual Red Sea International Film Festival, was launched on December 04 in the heart of Jeddah, at the Historic District. In its 5th edition, the 2025 theme is titled “For the Love of Cinema,” which represents five years of cinema love.
The opening film of the evening was The Giant. This year, it also features a variety of film screenings, including the Saudi Film “A Matter of Life and Death,” starring Yacoub Al Fahran and Sara Taiba. In addition to film screenings, the 5th edition includes conversations with Queen Latifa, Aishwarya Rai, Kristen Dunst, and Nina Dobrev.
