The International Kurdish Cinema Conference, organized by the Diyarbakır Arts Center in partnership with Diyarbakır Metropolitan Municipality with the support of the General Consulate of Sweden, was held during a period when Kurdish cinema was gaining increased visibility worldwide. Featuring lively discussions, film screenings, and film readings, the conference was attended by academicians, directors, and filmmakers from various parts of the world. The conference consisted of two sessions, one methodological and one thematic, which examined Kurdish cinema in a conceptual framework accompanied by detailed analyses of impactful examples. This comprehensive event opened up the debates and evaluations on “Kurdish cinema” which had previously been held in conjunction with some European festivals to discussion and marked the first time that such a discussion had taken place on this scale in Diyarbakır, the city where rich debates on the topic occur and attract significant attention from the audience.
