Following a partnership agreement signed by Sheikha Jawaher bint Abdullah Al Qasimi, Director of FUNN and SIFF, and Baker Ma, Founder and CEO, MENA Mobile, SIFF’s vast repository of high-quality content spanning series, films, cartoons, songs, stories, and educational videos, will be available free-of-charge on MENA Mobile’s Bustan app, which can be downloaded on both the Apple App Store and Google Play Store.
The partnership offers young audiences easy access to a new platform that will connect them to SIFF’s handpicked collection of media content produced locally and globally.

It will take us a step forward in achieving our vision to nurture a generation of empowered and highly motivated young artists capable of taking the Arab film industry to a higher level.”
Sheikha Jawaher pointed out that the partnership with MENA Mobile would unlock a treasure of content for audiences from around the world to watch from the safety of their homes as we continue to practice social distancing.
