We are a free international film student and graduate website.
We hold online events and festivals to showcase different country's film student and film school work.
We would be really interested in holding an event for Iraqi film students.

As an Iraqi, I found this story to be of special interest. Film is an important form of art and I'm glad that this school provides the canvas on which the younger generation can express their them selves on. I was truely impressed by the web site and would love to see all the films mentioned.
