Sharjah24: The Sharjah Broadcasting Authority (SBA) organised an evening at Al Qasimia University in Sharjah, during which it gathered more than 500 students to watch “Khorfakkan” movie, which is the first production of the cinematic authority, and embodies the struggle and sacrifices of ancestors in defense of their land in the face of the Portuguese occupation more than 500 years ago.
The screening of the film in front of the female students stems from the keenness of the Authority and Al Qasimia University to enable new generations to learn about the history of the country and the region, and open doors for them to view a great cinematic artistic experience that constituted a qualitative addition to the local film industry movement.
A group of prominent Arab stars participated in the film, including Syrians Rashid Assaf and Qais Sheikh Najib, Emiratis Ahmed Al Jasmi and Habib Ghuloom, while it was directed by Irishman Maurice Sweeney and British Bain Mall.
