The Saudi Film Commission is participating in the Annecy International Animation Film Festival 2025, taking place from June 8 to 14 in Annecy, France, one of the world’s most significant events in the field of animation.
The Commission’s participation aims to enhance communication with animation creators worldwide, promote Saudi animation in European forums, keep abreast of the latest trends in this sector, and enable national talents to benefit from the accompanying training programs.
The Saudi Film Commission’s participation includes a delegation from the Commission, along with a group of Saudi filmmakers specializing in animation, selected based on criteria that considered their activity and specialization in the field, as well as their production of animated works during 2024.
This participation also forms part of efforts to strengthen distribution and exhibition channels and enrich the animation sector locally.
Participation in the festival reflects the Kingdom’s ambition to be a leading voice in the global cinema and animation industries, as the festival serves as a prominent platform for creative collaboration, co-production opportunities, and professional dialogue, providing a launchpad for international partnerships that contribute to the growth of the Kingdom’s cultural economy over the long term.
